Edition 2025 — La Grande Invasione

The second edition of La Grande Invasione in the Aosta Valley took place in late May 2025 in Aosta, confirming the format of free events with writers and cultural figures. Held in theatres, historic halls, and bookshops in the city centre, the festival offered book presentations, lectures, and musical interludes, consolidating the presence of the festival, born in Ivrea, in the Aosta Valley capital.

The second edition of La Grande Invasione in Aosta was held in late May 2025, continuing the path started the previous year in the capital of the Aosta Valley. In 2025 too, the festival, directed by Marco Cassini and Gianmario Pilo, brought Italian writers, journalists, and cultural voices to the city, with a programme of completely free events.

The events—book presentations, lectures, conversations, and musical interludes—took place in symbolic locations in the historic centre, from the theatre to historic halls, from bookshops to city libraries. The edition confirmed the festival's connection with the local public and with the Piedmontese circuit of Ivrea and Chieri, paving the way for the third edition in 2026.
