About Tourist Festival

In August, Vestenanova, a mountain village in the Veronese Lessinia, welcomes its visitors with the Festa del Turista, a multi-decade event that has reached over forty editions. A craft market, concerts with orchestras, painting exhibitions, and a non-competitive FIASP running race through the woods animate the village in a festival designed for residents and tourists, organized by Pro Loco Vestenanova.

A festival for those who choose the mountains

The Vestenanova Tourist Festival is the summer event of the municipality of Vestenanova, a village in the Veronese Lessinia, in Veneto. Created to welcome and celebrate the tourists who choose these mountains as their holiday destination, the event is a multi-decade tradition, having reached over forty editions, organized by Pro Loco Vestenanova in collaboration with the Municipality.

Crafts, music, and art

The program blends different elements: the craft market, concerts with orchestras, painting exhibitions, and gastronomic events featuring mountain flavors. The festival, with free admission, is designed to involve families and visitors of all ages, in a convivial atmosphere that enhances the identity of the village and its territory.

Walking through the woods

Among the most anticipated events is the non-competitive FIASP running race, which takes participants to discover the trails and woods around Vestenanova. Sport, nature, crafts, and culture thus merge into a festival that celebrates the bond between the Lessinia community and its summer guests.
