Ravarino in Festa - Ravarino June
A month of events, festivals, music, and culture in the heart of Ravarino
About Ravarino June
A large, widespread festival in the heart of the Bassa Modenese
Ravarino June, from 2026 also presented under the name Ravarino in Festa, is the most anticipated summer festival in the Municipality of Ravarino, a small town in the Bassa Modenese region of Emilia-Romagna. Now in its thirteenth edition, the event transforms the town's squares, parks, and hamlets into a widespread stage for the entire month of June, with over fifty free or low-cost events.
A multidisciplinary program
The strength of Ravarino June lies in its variety: in just a few weeks, there are concerts, dance evenings, dance and theatre performances, art exhibitions, book presentations, markets, outdoor yoga classes, and environmental initiatives. Among the most characteristic events of the 2026 edition:
- the large human flag and the celebrations for the Republic Day on June 2nd in Piazza Martiri della Libertà;
- the collective exhibition "A Municipality of Art and Culture" featuring painting, sculpture, photography, poetry, and model making, set up in the Town Hall;
- the non-competitive race RAVA RUN 5.30 and the dawn walk;
- gatherings of vintage cars and motorcycles, from the Fiat 500 and Vespa rally to the Campagna Amica market;
- live concerts, from local bands and choirs to rock and country groups.
The two traditional festivals
Within the festival, two traditional Ravarino events survive. The Sant'Antonio Festival, dedicated to the town's patron saint, animates the central weekend of June with stalls, markets, and concerts. The San Giovanni Festival, on the other hand, takes place in the hamlet of Rami around June 23rd and 24th, with food stalls managed by the Pro Loco, themed dinners such as the Florentine steak dinner, rock concerts, and the show "Tutti in Scena" by the parish of San Giovanni Battista.
Volunteering and community
Ravarino June is above all a community celebration: behind the organization is the Pro Loco Ravarino, supported by almost thirty local associations, from the municipal AVIS to environmental groups, from sports organizations to the parish. In 2026, the event takes on even greater significance as Ravarino has been recognized as a protagonist of volunteering in the Modena area, with numerous initiatives of solidarity, inclusion, and environmental protection included in the event calendar.
