The Bread and Peasant Civilization Festival turns 18. From July 31st in Trentinara

The Bread and Peasant Civilization Festival comes of age and, with the coming of age, as usual, the celebrations are guaranteed.

Tradition and Modernity

The celebration, however, will not be distorted: this event will always be celebrated in the name of tradition; the formula will be the one that has told its story throughout its 18 years of age. “This beautiful girl with golden hair like the wheat fields lying in the sun has grown in grace and beauty, keeping with her the values ​​learned from her grandmother and transmitted with love. The courage to pass on has made her special today, capable of distinguishing herself, capable of building, capable of not perishing, but of reviving the memory of the even more ancient past. The concrete objectives that in her eighteen years she has set herself, have cost her efforts and toil. She has always focused on quality, on local ingredients, on the work of housewives, she has had passion because the celebration has the freshness of an 18-year-old girl, who believes that even through her a message of a territory that grows, evolves, but does not detach itself from its history can be transmitted”.

The music

The sounds chosen for its celebrations are those of typicality and lightheartedness, those danced and sung in the fields by farmers; sounds that will accompany the public in the alleys, concerts that can be attended in the rich musical program in Piazza dei Martiri e degli Eroi. The celebration of its 18 years is consistent with its growth: modernity and innovation that never distort traditions.
