La Notte Rosa
Trecate's summer evening of local commerce, music, stalls, and entertainment
About Notte Rosa Trecate
La Notte Rosa, Trecate's summer festival
La Notte Rosa is one of the most anticipated events of the Trecate summer: an evening where the historic center of Trecate, in the Province of Novara, Piedmont, comes alive until late at night with music, open shops, food stalls, and activities for all ages. Originally created to promote local commerce, the event has quickly transformed into a genuine town festival capable of drawing thousands of people to the arcades and squares of the center.
Where it takes place
The heart of the event is Piazza Cavour, the main square of Trecate, around which the streets of the historic center—closed to traffic for the occasion—spread out. Along the route, there are over fifty merchants, stalls, art displays, car and motorcycle exhibitions, performances by local dance schools, and numerous refreshment points set up by shopkeepers and local associations.
An event for the whole community
La Notte Rosa is designed as a widespread and inclusive festival: alongside the merchant stalls, there is entertainment for children, including themed face painting, mascots, and a selfie booth, as well as moments dedicated to solidarity thanks to the presence of local volunteer groups. The evening traditionally concludes with a show in Piazza Cavour, featuring pop music, DJ sets, light shows, and spectacular scenery entirely themed around the color pink, the symbol of the event.
Organization
La Notte Rosa is promoted by the Municipality of Trecate together with the Pro Loco Trecate and the departments of Commerce and Events, with the involvement of local merchants and associations. Admission is free, and the event represents one of the highlights of the city's summer calendar.
