Veronetta #SpazioTeatroGiovani
The festival that gives voice to young people in the Veronetta district
About Veronetta #SpazioTeatro Giovani
The theatre of young people in Verona
Veronetta #SpazioTeatro Giovani is the theatre festival that enlivens the Veronetta district in Verona every June, giving a voice to hundreds of girls and boys. It is the culmination of the long work of the theatre workshops run by Spazio Teatro Giovani, a project of the Mine Vaganti APS association, which involves actors aged 8 to 36 throughout the year.
Two stages in the heart of Veronetta
The festival takes place in two locations: Parco Santa Toscana, which evening performances transform into an open-air theatre and community space, and the Teatro SS. Trinità, a historic theatre in the district. The performances address current issues—from war to migration, from the transition to adulthood to intergenerational relationships—often reinterpreting classical myths and tragedies from a contemporary perspective.
A community project
More than just a showcase, Veronetta #SpazioTeatro Giovani is a collective experience: young people not only act but also participate in the organisation and management of the festival. Some events are part of the Verona Theatre Summer programme, confirming the initiative's deep roots in the city's cultural life.
Veronetta #SpazioTeatro Giovani — edition 2026
The sixth edition of Veronetta #SpazioTeatro Giovani takes place from June 2 to 30, 2026, revolving around the theme 'Daughters/Sons', which connects workshops and performances. 203 young people, aged 9 to 36, will present their work and also manage the event's organisation. The programme includes 18 events at Parco Santa Toscana and 4 at the Teatro SS. Trinità, two of which are part of the Verona Theatre Summer programme.
