Greater security of internal areas and parking lots, incentives for energy saving, development of technological innovation and creation of services with co-working business areas. These are some of the activities on which the management of Volcano Spa, the company that owns the Centre built by Renzo Piano in the Nola Business Park, which has approved the industrial plan for the repositioning of the asset.
With the support of financial partners Dea Capital and AMCO, Vulcano Buono is investing 20,2 million euros in the radical modernization and retail repositioning of the structure. In the execution of the plan, investments were also made in the creation of a new work team led by top manager Francesco Furino in the role of CEO, who, together with the president, Luca Lo Giudice, and the strategic partner Multi Italy, will have to guarantee the implementation of the industrial plan. The numbers of Vulcano Buono: Vulcano Buono with over 140 stores, a 9-screen cinema branded The Space, 1 4-star hotel of the international Holiday Inn chain, with equipped play areas and spaces dedicated to family and leisure time, is the destination towards which, a note underlines, "we are rushing to channel the expertise of the new managerial resources who see in the structure very high potential that is still "unexploited".
Large resources will be dedicated to the safety of internal areas and parking lots, energy saving, technological innovation, the creation of services with co-working business areas and multifunctional structures to support the adjacent Nola Business Park and the visiting public”. The smart district: But the redevelopment does not only concern investments in structural redevelopment. The plan sets out the desire to create a real Smart District with the creation of a structure with a strong receptive vocation where the large external green areas of the Volcano are rethought and new activities dedicated to entertainment, edutainment and sports are implemented through the creation of large theme parks, experiential and interactive laboratories, baby-caring areas aimed at redesigning a project that aims to become the first entertainment destination in Campania, in a mix of services to support the family.
The Mall, as well as the Food Court, will be redesigned and the external Piazza set up for an increasingly modern and transversal use, suitable for a target audience of all ages. “All with the aim of returning Vulcano Buono to its original vocation as a provider of services to support its customers, with the inclusion of large areas dedicated to Medical Center activities, personal well-being and primary support for citizens”.
Eutòpia, the post-industrial amphitheater: The futuristic and modern EUTÒPIA structure, inaugurated in 2022 and built in the heart of the shopping center, fits into this context. Within an area of four thousand square meters and five thousand seats, shows and initiatives of various types come to life: from sporting events to concerts, from the launch of new products and collections, to private gala dinners and show cooking competitions, through famous TV programs that broadcast their live broadcasts from the arena to theater shows and musicals.
In the coming months, the schedule will continue to guarantee multiple moments of entertainment. Gala party for the Napoli championship: On June 5, in the wake of the celebrations for the Napoli championship, the live broadcast of the last episode of the season of the program 'Il bello del calcio' will take place in the form of a Gala Party, with guests such as Fulvio Collovati, Maurizio de Giovanni, Francesco Modugno from Sky Sport, Franco Ordine from Pressing di Italia Uno and artists of the caliber of Biagio Izzo, Francesco Paolantoni and Ciro Giustiniani, who will perform during the evening.
The school is over: Saturday 10 June there will be space for children again, with performances by actors who interpret famous fairy tales, street artists and educational workshops for the little ones. In fact, there will be the return of the “Children's Sunday at the Volcano”, already hosted on 7 May, but which will be brought forward to Saturday to make room on Sunday 11 June for the concert “The school is Over” which will feature 4 of the most anticipated rappers of the season: Lele Blade, CoCo, Enzo Dong and Yung Snapp. Tango Festival: The following weekend, 15-18 June, will be the turn of the International Tango Festival with more than 300 couples of tango dancers from all over the world who will compete in challenges to the last Casquè. In July, the Peppe Iodice show: from mid-July, then, it is announced, the calendar will be filled with surprises with new artists and, then again: the theatre, and the fun of Gioca Italia, a revisitation of Giochi senza frontiere (on 21-22-23 July) and the Peppe Iodice comedy show on 29 July.
Then there will be the national agri-food fairs scheduled for September and the permanent exhibition of the Gigli di Nola, an event recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. "A wide-ranging project, therefore, that will start tomorrow, but above all a clear, ambitious and at the same time highly revolutionary plan that will give life to an epochal relaunch of the Center", the promoters claim.
