A treasure chest of culture
An intimate city capable of offering a rich and varied cultural offer, in line with its elegant and bohemian soul. Starting with the Mart, the great museum of contemporary art which, in addition to offering exhibitions of international standing, organises many events open to the public, from guided tours to tastings, from artistic performances to DJ sets and concerts under Botta’s famous cupola.
Then, in September, Rovereto becomes a point of reference for lovers of contemporary dance with the Festival Oriente Occidente (East West Festival), which brings leading names in Italian and international dance to the city. In 2024, the dates to mark on the calendar are those from 30 August to 7 September.
Also in September, Rovereto hosts Settenovecento, a music festival with chamber concerts in unusual locations around the city, symphony concerts and late night concerts.
Not to mention the Wired Next Fest, the largest free-to-attend event in Italy dedicated to innovation and the impact of digital technologies, which returns to Rovereto from 26 to 29 September 2024.
The best way, however, to discover the most significant cultural sites is to participate in one of the many urban treks offered in the autumn. Each of them starts from a specific theme to tell one of the many stories of Rovereto: from Depero’s story, full of imagination, to the tragic pages of the First World War, from the discovery of historic buildings to a walk that, following a silk thread, tells the story of the city in the 18th century.
