Autunno in Festa | 18th Edition

On Saturday 22 and Sunday 23 October 2022, the long-awaited event for young and old returns!

The Old Town, for the occasion, dresses up in warm autumn tones and an all-Green touch: sustainability, zero km, energy saving and reuse of materials are in fact the main theme of the 2022 edition.

Autunno in Festa offers a market with autumn-themed exhibition and food and wine stands, children’s rides, music by the Monteverdi school children and DJ sets, activities by sports associations and much more to make this autumn unforgettable!

Access is free!

New in this edition is ‘THE AUTUMN OF THE SPECTACULAR PASSENGERS’.
The initiative, promoted by the city of Jesolo, is part of the Eco-Schools environmental education programme and celebrates the Autumn Festival.
The aim is to convey an important message by addressing small citizens, shopkeepers, and all those involved in maintaining local traditions and cultures.

Those who wish to participate are invited to build a special scarecrow using strictly recycled materials.
The cute little ‘zero waste’ men will populate the streets of the historic centre, helping to make the city streets even more characteristic.

The activity is curated by Luciana Carta.
