FuckUp Nights to host stories of failure at Mestre's Teatro Toniolo

The international FuckUp Nights format is arriving at the Teatro Toniolo in Mestre for its fourth Venetian edition on Saturday, September 26. Co-produced by WowHaus and the Fondazione don Franco de Pieri, the event aims to challenge the traditional culture of success by focusing on failures, mistakes, and personal setbacks as tools for growth and resilience.

The evening will feature speakers sharing unfiltered stories of professional and personal challenges. Notable participants include former Italian basketball player and mental coach Riccardo Pittis, who discusses the educational value of defeat, and MasterChef Italia winner Stefano Callegaro, who will address past media controversies. The collaboration with Fondazione don Franco de Pieri also seeks to reduce the stigma surrounding vulnerability and social inclusion.
