With the Festival dell 'Economia, again thisyear in the squares of Trento the color and animation to light up the entire city of Trento! Many initiatives are planned, with different activities that will involve the public of all ages.
The Festival dell'Economia di Trento, organized by Gruppo 24 ORE and Trentino Marketing, returns to energize the city with opportunities for meetings, debates, and discussions, set in the historic indoor venues and the most iconic squares of Trento.
From Piazza Duomo to Piazza Fiera, passing through Piazza Cesare Battisti and Piazza Pasi, the schedule is rich with events as part of the Fuori Festival and the programming of Radio 24, creating a widespread atmosphere of participation and sharing.
Also returning for this edition is the historic central bookshop in Piazza Duomo, where visitors can explore a curated selection of titles by the key figures and authors of the Festival, while the innovative Lounge in Piazza Fiera will serve as the true epicenter of programming dedicated to younger audiences.
Another highlight is the Radio 24 stage in Piazza Cesare Battisti, where the radio comes to life through its most successful shows and the new-generation experience of live podcasts. Meanwhile, Piazza Pasi greets the Festival community each morning with the press review presented and commented on by the editorial staff of Il Sole 24 Ore.
So, it's not just about economics – this widespread festival transforms every corner of the city into a meeting point for ideas, knowledge, and new perspectives.
Sky TG 24 will broadcast live from the square programs and moments of in-depth analysis involving the guests and the protagonists of the Festival.
Autostrade per l 'Italia will bring to the public reflections and content on the theme of road safety and correct driving behaviour.
The European Parliament and the European Commission will host meetings, moments of dialogue with civil society and stakeholders, along with gaming and entertainment activities.
In the shade of Trento's ancient walls, Piazza Fiera becomes one of the city's beating hearts during the Festival dell'Economia, transforming into the epicenter of a program dedicated to youth, with events designed to explore new trends and delve into current topics.
Here, the Fuori Festival Lounge comes to life, a stage for "Voices of Tomorrow": the main hub for some of the most meaningful events, starting with the CALL FOR IDEAS “Voices of Tomorrow” initiative, promoted by the Festival's Scientific Committee and the Fuori Festival organizing team, giving a platform to the new generations.
Selected young participants will join some of the panels throughout the four-day event, sharing their perspectives and visions for the future.
Joining them on the Lounge stage will be visionary keynote speakers—talents, artists, scientists, and communicators—who will guide audiences through the big crossroads of today’s world, each from their unique viewpoint.
A journey through science, satire, and entertainment, with space also for literature, solidarity-driven experiences, and a spotlight on the world of music production.
The square by the Torrione will also be animated by the Fuori Festival partners: next to the immersive installation “How Are You?” by Angelini Industries focused on mental health, visitors can take free hearing screenings offered by Amplifon, while Autostrada del Brennero will explore ecological transition and hydrogen innovation. Gruppo Dolomiti Energia will be present with an information booth focused on renewable energy, sustainability, and decarbonization.
Radio 24 takes center stage in the square, broadcasting a selection of its programming live and creating unique opportunities for the audience to meet its hosts, revealing the emotions of live radio and behind-the-scenes moments.
In addition to the Radio 24 studios, Piazza Cesare Battisti will feature a STAGE where live shows by the radio hosts will alternate with broadcasts.
The heart of Trento will come alive, engaging all kinds of audiences and bringing the Festival out into the square beyond traditional venues.
"Un caffè al Sole" is the daily live press review curated by the Deputy Editors of Il Sole 24 Ore.
Together with them, the public can read and comment on the day's main news stories, from May 22 to 25, 8:30 AM to 9:15 AM at Bar Pasi, Piazza Pasi 1.
