Edition 2025 — Person of the Year

The fourth edition of the Sagron Mis Festival took place on September 19-20, 2025, focusing on the theme of depopulation in high-altitude areas. Two days of hiking, meetings, music, and tradition brought together scholars, mountaineers, and administrators, featuring the mayor of Ostana, a community that serves as a symbol of alpine rebirth. The program included a hike led by Alessandro Gogna, a tribute to the seggiolai (chair makers) of Sagron Mis with anthropologist Angelo Longo, a debate on living in the mountains, and a string concert by Miriam Daldon and Glauco Bertagnin, followed by a country lunch offered by the Pro Loco.
