OltreConfine Festival — Darfo Boario Terme stop

A widespread festival between Valle Camonica and Sebino

OltreConfine is the widespread cultural festival that crosses Valle Camonica and Sebino, now in its twelfth edition. The 2026 theme, "Walking along the borders", guides thirteen events distributed across eleven municipalities — including Angolo Terme, Bienno, Breno, Cedegolo, Costa Volpino, Darfo Boario Terme, Gianico, Esine, Paspardo, Pian Camuno, and Pisogne — with leading figures of Italian culture.

The Darfo Boario Terme stop

The Municipality of Darfo Boario Terme (Province of Brescia) hosts one of the most anticipated evenings: on April 16, at 9:00 PM, at the Teatro San Filippo, a tribute to the writer Stefano Benni will be staged. The show, titled "Musica per giovani animali", features Angela Finocchiaro, a renowned film and theatre actress, alongside Alberto Rollo, a writer, translator, and literary critic.

A tribute to Stefano Benni

The evening celebrates the great author through selected readings from his most beloved works, from Bar Sport to La Compagnia dei Celestini, to Il bar sotto il mare. Angela Finocchiaro's readings bring back the unmistakable blend of comedy and fantasy that has made Benni one of the most original voices in contemporary Italian literature.

Culture for all

Like the entire festival, the Darfo stop is free admission subject to availability, in the spirit of an event that brings great culture to the mountain territories of Brescia, enhancing the villages and theaters of Valle Camonica.
