About Il Risveglio dei Borghi

Between late summer and autumn, the villages of the Municipality of Baschi - the main town, Civitella del Lago, and Acqualoreto - "awaken" with a widespread review that intertwines five elements: environment, culture, food and wine, shows, and music. Concerts, theatre performances, tributes to great Italian singer-songwriters, and food stalls liven up the squares of this corner of southern Umbria overlooking the Tiber. A festival designed to enhance the territory and community life of the small centres.

A review that enlivens the villages

"Il Risveglio dei Borghi" is an initiative promoted by the Municipal Administration of Baschi, in the province of Terni, to liven up the centres of the territory between the end of summer and autumn. The review involves the main town and the hamlets of Civitella del Lago and Acqualoreto, each with its own event.

Five elements

The event revolves around five keywords: environment, culture, food and wine, shows, and music. A mix that combines reflection on environmental and community issues with street festivals, live performances, and local cuisine.

Music and live entertainment

The programme alternates concerts, theatre performances, and tributes to great Italian songwriting - from Fabrizio De Andrรฉ to Rino Gaetano, from Francesco Guccini to Rino Gaetano - with performances and musical groups performing in the village squares. Food stalls offer local dishes starting in the evening.

A territory to discover

Baschi and its hamlets are located in an area of great scenic charm, between Lake Corbara and the Tiber River, along the Todi-Orvieto axis. "Il Risveglio dei Borghi" is an opportunity to discover these small villages in southern Umbria, far from the major tourist flows.

Il Risveglio dei Borghi โ€” edition 2026

The 2026 edition of Il Risveglio dei Borghi is expected between September and early autumn, with the usual scattered events among Baschi, Civitella del Lago, and Acqualoreto. Precise dates and the programme will be announced by the Municipality of Baschi in the weeks preceding the event.

For 2026 too, the Municipality of Baschi confirms the annual recurrence of the review, which enlivens the villages of the territory in the late summer-autumn period. The formula includes distinct events in the main town and in the hamlets of Civitella del Lago and Acqualoreto, centred around the five elements of the festival: environment, culture, food and wine, shows, and music.
