Starlit cinema nights in Piazza Sampieri, Gassino Torinese
When summer arrives and the evenings grow long, Piazza Sampieri in Gassino Torinese changes its look, becoming an open-air cinema. This initiative, organized by the Pro Loco Gassino Torinese APS, brings free film screenings to the town center, gathering families, children, and movie lovers in a relaxed and convivial atmosphere.
The Open-Air Cinema โ also known as Cinema under the stars โ has become one of the most anticipated events in the summer calendar of Gassino Torinese, a municipality in the Metropolitan City of Turin, Piedmont, overlooking the left bank of the Po at the foot of the Turin hills. Screenings generally take place on Thursday evenings in July, starting around 9:30 PM, when the darkness allows for the best viewing experience on the large screen set up in the square.
The highlight of the festival is its accessibility: admission is free, and the programming focuses on titles suitable for a wide audience, from animated films for the little ones to movies designed for families. Over the years, the square has hosted highly popular screenings, capable of turning a simple summer evening into a festive moment for the whole town.
The Open-Air Cinema is part of the rich program of initiatives that the Pro Loco of Gassino offers throughout the year, alongside events like the Patronal Feast, the Fagiolata, and the Polentata. It is a way to experience the public spaces of the town, gather outdoors, and share the magic of the big screen in the setting of the province of Turin and Piedmont.
For the summer of 2026, the Pro Loco Gassino Torinese confirms the Open-Air Cinema festival in Piazza Sampieri, with free screenings on July evenings. As per tradition, the events take place in the evening, starting around 9:30 PM, and feature films suitable for families and children.
The detailed program of titles and the exact dates of the individual evenings will be published by the Pro Loco on its official channels (website and social media) in the weeks preceding the start of the festival.
The complete calendar of the 2026 screenings will be announced by the Pro Loco Gassino Torinese in the weeks leading up to the festival. Events are planned for select evenings in July, starting around 9:30 PM in Piazza Sampieri.
