About Tarot Festival

The Tarot Festival transforms the historic Tettuccio Thermal Baths in Montecatini Terme into a symbolic temple dedicated to the universe of the Arcana. Featuring rare and artist-designed decks, cartomancy readings, an esoteric market, seminars, and the sacred dance performance by the Heliopolis company, this immersive weekend weaves together tradition, esotericism, and contemporary creativity in the heart of Tuscany's spa region.

A journey into the world of the Arcana

The Tarot Festival brings to Montecatini Terme, in the province of Pistoia, an event entirely dedicated to the culture, history, and imagery of Tarot. For an entire weekend, the monumental Tettuccio Thermal Baths — a symbol of Tuscan thermal elegance — transform into a true symbolic temple, where art, mystery, and knowledge meet to create an immersive experience open to visitors of all ages.

Between tradition, esotericism, and creativity

The event explores the vast universe of the Arcana in all its forms: from its historical and collecting dimensions to divination, and even the artistic and contemporary reinterpretation of its symbols. The program alternates between moments of cultural depth and more intimate, personal experiences, set in an atmosphere suspended between the rigor of study and the allure of mystery.

  • Tarot Collections: rare, historical, and artist-designed decks on public display
  • Readings and divination with professional cartomancers and experts
  • Esoteric market featuring artisans and creatives, books, spiritual objects, incense, and wellness products
  • Seminars and workshops dedicated to symbolic reading and the history of the Arcana
  • Dance performance by the Heliopolis company

The sacred dance of the Arcana

The performative heart of the festival is «Tarot – The Sacred Dance of the 22 Arcana», a world premiere show by the Heliopolis company: a choreography that brings the symbolic figures of the deck to life, from the Magician to the High Priestess, from the Hermit to the Star, translating the language of the Major Arcana into movement.

Montecatini Terme, capital of Tarot

Set in one of Italy's most famous thermal complexes, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, the Tarot Festival has attracted visitors from various Italian regions and international guests to Montecatini Terme, confirming the Tuscan city's vocation for hosting culturally significant national events. An appointment that combines the Liberty-style charm of the Tettuccio with a curiosity for symbolism, art history, and personal growth.
