Art, mystery, and the symbolism of the Arcana at the Tettuccio Thermal Baths
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.
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.
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.
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.
The inaugural edition of the Tarot Festival was held on Saturday, June 6 (11:00 AM – 10:00 PM) and Sunday, June 7, 2026 (10:00 AM – 9:00 PM) at the historic Tettuccio Thermal Baths in Montecatini Terme. The event transformed the thermal complex into a national reference point for enthusiasts of the Arcana, esotericism, and personal growth, with a program rich in meetings, conferences, workshops, and performances.
