La Luna e i Calanchi cultural festival
Overview
The sixteenth edition of the ‘La Luna e i Calanchi’ festival, centered on ‘Paesologia’ (landscape studies), was scheduled to take place in Aliano, Basilicata, from August 18 to 23, 2026. Artistic director Franco Arminio described the initiative as an effort to transform the village into a “space of universal welcome” through a program of essays, art, and performances.
Following the festival's commencement, related cultural activities were held, including an event at the Villa Fondi de Sangro terrace in Piano di Sorrento. During this gathering, Arminio presented his book ‘L’incredibile non si può dire a tutti. Poesie d’amore’, focusing on themes of poetry, southern Italian culture, and the capacity of small gestures and landscapes to provide hope.
