NO BORDERS MUSIC FESTIVAL

July – Tarvisio

One of the major music festivals in the Northeast, the No Borders Music Festival, has been animating the Tarvisio summer for over twenty years. Organized by the Tarvisio Tourism Promotion Consortium, it aims to enhance music as a form of culture and a means of communication able to be understood by everyone beyond ethnic, linguistic, social and geographical boundaries. It reflects the quality of a unique area such as Tarvisio, located between Austria and Slovenia, characterized by multilingualism and multicultural aspects. Leading national and international artists perform in the square of Tarvisio or in beautiful natural surroundings such as the Fusine lakes or the slopes of Mount Canin at an altitude of 1850 metres.

TARVISIO YOUNG

FRIENDSHIP FESTIVALS

MOUNT GORIANE

1St Sunday of August – Mount Goriane

On the first Sunday in August, the alp of Mount Goriane, at the border between Italy and Austria, hosts the traditional Friendship Festival. People can reach the top of the mountain on foot, starting from Coccau (Tarvisio). The festival is a moment of encounter between the Carinthian and Friulian peoples, and is one of the first examples of cross-border collaboration.
Music, gastronomy and a non-competitive march.

MOUNT FORNO

1St Sunday of September – Mount Forno

Every year on Mount Forno, the mountain of the three borders (Italy, Slovenia and Austria), the friendship festival is celebrated among the three populations. Music, folklore, food and wine in the name of multiculturalism make this festival an opportunity to meet in a unique setting seasoned with the authentic and genuine spirit that only the mountain can give.
You can reach the festival from Italy for a short stretch by car along the road that leads from Fusine to the mountain (road marked by the chart). The route continues on foot from the Italian side along the mountain path (about 45 min. walk). From Austria, at Seltschach in the municipality of Arnoldstein, you can reach the top of Mount Forno by chairlift.

TRADITIONAL NEW YEAR’S EVE TORCHLIGHT PROCESSION on MOUNT LUSSARI

January 1 – Camporosso

The New Year celebrations cannot ignore an appointment that is now unmissable for locals and visitors: the torchlight procession of January 1 that every year descends to illuminate the Prampero ski run.
A large group of skiers dressed in traditional costume leave around 6 pm from the top of Mount Lussari to arrive in the village, in Camporosso, where the people’s warmth awaits them, with the scent of vin brûlé (warm wine) and the crackling fire that is lit by their torches. The village dresses up for the occasion that lasts all afternoon with colourful and fragrant stalls to wish everyone a happy new year. The torchlight procession ends with a fireworks display.
