About Strombiano d'Autore
Strombiano d'Autore: Culture and music under the stars of Val di Peio
Strombiano d'Autore is a summer cultural festival held in Strombiano, a charming little hamlet in the municipality of Peio, in Val di Peio, within the autonomous province of Trento (Trentino-Alto Adige). Every year, the festival enlivens the July evenings with a series of free, public events designed to bring vibrant culture to a mountain village nestled among the forests and peaks of the Stelvio National Park.
A program of music and words
The event is intentionally multidisciplinary: the evenings alternate between live concerts, book presentations, and meetings with authors, journalists, and direct witnesses of current events. Folk and singer-songwriter music from local Trentino bands intertwines with moments of reflection dedicated to the great issues of our time, giving voice to experiences and stories rooted in both local and global contexts.
A commitment to social issues
Strombiano d'Autore stands out for its focus on social and civil topics. Recent editions have addressed themes of hospitality and migration, featuring direct accounts from the Mediterranean, while the 2026 edition is dedicated to the theme "Together out of violence". Through books, dialogues, and meetings, the festival transforms the small village square into an open and participatory space for discussion, engaging both residents and visitors.
The setting of Val di Peio
The festival is part of the rich summer calendar of events in Val di Peio and Val di Sole, one of the most authentic valleys in western Trentino. With its stone and wood houses and mountain views, Strombiano provides the ideal setting for open-air evenings where culture meets community. For those spending their summer holidays between the thermal baths of Peio, the trails of the Stelvio National Park, and the valley's villages, Strombiano d'Autore is a precious opportunity to combine nature, music, and thought.
