Note e Sapori – Arre Buskers Festival
Street artists, music, and flavours transform Arre into an open-air theatre
About Note e Sapori
Arre as an open-air stage
Note e Sapori – Arre Buskers Festival is the street arts festival of Arre, in the province of Padova, founded in 2022 and which in a few years has become one of the most anticipated events of the summer in the Bassa Padovana. For one evening, the central Via Roma is closed to traffic and transformed into a pedestrian area, hosting five fixed stages dedicated to concerts, dance, and performances, as well as numerous itinerant artists.
Music, flavour, and family
The festival combines the notes of street musicians with the flavours of the region: along the route, there are ten food stalls with local cuisine and street food, an area dedicated to artisans and painters from the Veneto region, and a play area for children with entertainment for families. Hundreds of seats welcome the public, while a separate waste collection system accompanies the event with a focus on sustainability.
A community celebration
Organised by the Municipality of Arre together with the Pro Loco Arre APS and the Human Project association, Note e Sapori is a community celebration that enhances the historic centre and the identity of the Paduan town. Among buskers, concerts, and gastronomic specialities, it is the ideal occasion to experience the authentic atmosphere of a Veneto village on a warm summer evening.
