About Beata Giuliana Festival

The Musical Festival for Blessed Giuliana is a neighborhood review that celebrates with music the figure of Blessed Giuliana, linked to Busto Arsizio. Students from the Bausch Music High School are the protagonists, performing on multiple evenings and in various locations in the city—oratories, churches, and halls—ranging from vocal, symphonic, guitar, and wind music. An event that intertwines music, territory, and young talents, with free admission.

Music for Blessed Giuliana

The Musical Festival for Blessed Giuliana is a neighborhood musical review that takes place in Busto Arsizio, in the province of Varese, dedicated to the figure of Blessed Giuliana, deeply linked to the city's history and devotion. Organized by the Riabitare Association, the festival was created to combine the celebration of a spiritual figure of the territory with the promotion of young musicians.

The young talents of the Bausch High School

The protagonists of the festival are the students of the Candiani-Bausch Music High School in Busto Arsizio, who perform alongside more structured ensembles. The review is divided into several evenings, each dedicated to a different musical genre—from vocal music to symphonic, from guitar to wind music—offering the public a varied and rich experience.

A festival spread throughout the neighborhood

The concerts are held in symbolic places of the city and the neighborhood: the Oratory of San Bernardino, the church of San Luigi Beata Giuliana, the ProBusto Hall, and the church of San Giovanni. This itinerant choice enhances the religious and cultural heritage of Busto Arsizio and creates a strong link between music and the community's spaces.

Music, territory, and community

As the organizers emphasize, the festival represents 'a moment of encounter between music, territory, and young talents'. Born just a few editions ago, it has already received great public response, with packed churches, confirming itself as one of the most heartfelt musical initiatives in the Busto Arsizio neighborhoods. Admission is free.
