Events calendar Italie - Alpes italiennes et Dolomites

A week of jazz with many talented artists: this is the goal of the Torino Jazz Festival, organized every year since 2012. Since 2018, the festival is held in the OGR, the recently renovated Officine Grandi Riparazioni, as well as in other great venues in Turin. Recognized on the European music scene, this festival offers, in addition to the many solo performances and jam sessions, concerts in the city's clubs or in places normally kept closed. Something for jazz lovers to enjoy!

On the steps of Paris and New York, Milan now has its Fashion Night too. An overreal night where the city offers you, in all its beauty and creativity. More than 500 open shops until 11:30 where you can get makeup, tattooing, cross fashion and show personalities baptizing champagne a new shop and of course enjoy the atmosphere to get you the last Prada bag, Moschino's limited series T-shirt and perfumed you with the latest perfumes of Valentino.

Concerts are given in the church of San Gottardo and the Teatro dei Reparati.

Every year, Turin hosts the largest modern and contemporary art event in Italy. Artissima is an international fair, similar to the Fiac in Paris. A must-attend event for professionals, gallery owners, collectors and artists who often welcome the art-loving public, the four days are packed with discoveries. Since its first edition in 1994, Artissima has made a point of encouraging experimentation and research, highlighting emerging artists and current trends.

Created in Turin in 1978, this classical music festival is organized, since 2007, in partnership with Milan. For three weeks in September, the public can choose, in either city, concerts of high quality, with tickets at low prices. Auditoriums, churches, courtyards and squares transform the two historic cities into a huge musical parterre, where one can listen to symphonic music, chamber music and soloists. Each year the festival gathers about 30 000 music lovers. Shows are also planned for the young public.

Less famous than that of Siena, but older and just as lively, the Palio di Asti is a tradition that has been going on since the Middle Ages, and more precisely since the 12th century! Every year, on the third Sunday of September, the festivities begin with a historical costume parade with more than 1,200 figures that winds through the streets of the old town and a flea market that precedes a wild horse race in Piazza Alfieri in Asti, the central square of the city.
