The festival conceived by Elisabetta Sgarbi stops in Sondrio
La Milanesiana is one of Italy's most important cultural festivals: born in Milan and conceived by Elisabetta Sgarbi, it is a travelling review that intertwines literature, music, cinema, science, art, theatre, philosophy, and law. For years, the festival has also stopped in Sondrio, bringing top-level guests and content to the capital of Valtellina. The 2026 edition, the twenty-seventh, has the theme “Desire and Law”.
The Sondrio day of La Milanesiana is divided into two moments. In the afternoon, at the Valtellinese Museum of History and Art (MVSA), an exhibition opening is scheduled; in the evening, at the Teatro Sociale, a theatre performance will take place. A program that combines visual arts and theatre, in the spirit of cross-pollination between languages that characterises the review.
One of the merits of the Sondrio stop is the free admission by reservation, which makes a prestigious event accessible to everyone. It is an opportunity to experience contemporary culture up close, in a dialogue between great names and the local audience.
The presence of La Milanesiana in Sondrio testifies to the link between the Valtellina capital and great national culture. In a territory known primarily for its landscape and food and wine, the festival brings a breath of literature, art, and theatre, confirming Sondrio and Lombardy as places of cultural vibrancy.
The 2026 Sondrio stop of La Milanesiana, the twenty-seventh edition of the festival conceived by Elisabetta Sgarbi on the theme “Desire and Law”, takes place on July 13th. Double event: at 6:00 PM the opening of an exhibition at the Valtellinese Museum of History and Art (MVSA) and at 9:00 PM a theatre performance at the Teatro Sociale.
