The ‘Salotto Gridolfi’ event in Montegridolfo is a summer cultural and artistic festival held against the picturesque backdrop of the village’s historic centre and castle. It is a ‘festival’ with a particular focus on storytelling, creativity and women’s perspectives, but is open to everyone: it features discussions and conversations with guests such as writers, artists, entrepreneurs and creative figures, book launches, art and craft exhibitions, concerts and live music, as well as tasting sessions, all in an intimate and convivial atmosphere under the stars. Admission is free, and the evenings aim to celebrate stories, emotions, art and culture in a historic and evocative setting.
