Munse Music Festival

The Munse Music Festival in Borgo San Dalmazzo

The Munse Music Festival is the youth music showcase of Borgo San Dalmazzo, a town in the province of Cuneo (Piedmont) located at the gateway to the Stura, Gesso, and Vermenagna valleys. The event takes place at the Monserrato Amphitheatre, an open-air space on the hill overlooking the town next to the sanctuary of the same name—a natural setting that has become the go-to venue for the community's summer events over the years.

Born in 2023 as the concluding event of the "Una rete di idee" youth project, the festival has grown with each edition to become a highly anticipated date on the Cuneo summer calendar. After a one-year hiatus, the festival returns in 2026 with an expanded three-day format, reflecting a constant drive to elevate the quality of the program.

A widespread festival blending music and social life

Munse is more than just a concert series: it is a cultural project that puts young people and their creativity at the heart of the experience. Alongside the music, there is space for discussion, round tables, freestyle contests, and activities tied to the local area, in collaboration with both local and national organizations. The festival's identity spans from urban culture and rap to electronic music, with DJ sets that energize the amphitheatre for hours.

The festival's philosophy is rooted in participation: street food, aperitifs in the sanctuary square, meeting spaces, and a convivial atmosphere that makes Munse the perfect excuse to gather outdoors on summer evenings. Management is entrusted to Revolution Culture, with the support of local volunteer associations.

Borgo San Dalmazzo and the Monserrato hill

Situated at the foot of the Maritime Alps, Borgo San Dalmazzo serves as one of the gateways to the Cuneo valleys and preserves a rich historical heritage linked to the ancient abbey of San Dalmazzo. The Monserrato hill, with its sanctuary and amphitheatre surrounded by greenery, offers a picturesque backdrop that blends the freshness of contemporary music with the tranquility of the foothills in the province of Cuneo.
