The Festival della Bellezza is about to begin in Valcavasia: it begins on Thursday, May 21, with the first concert at the Parish Church of Cavaso del Tomba (TV). It continues for four weeks of events featuring music, art, nature, and food and wine.
Now in its fifth edition, the festival spans the region, involving the municipalities of Cavaso del Tomba, Possagno, Monfumo, Pieve del Grappa, and Pederobba. It was founded in 2022 based on an idea by Fernando Sartor and Valentina Cremona, founders of The Music Country House.
The goal is to highlight the areas with a rich historical and cultural heritage and the extraordinary landscape of Valcavasia, nestled between the majestic Grappa Massif and the Piave River.
For four weeks, from May 21 to June 14, the Festival offers “slow” events in historic and natural settings, with a program that winds through churches, historic sites, trails, and hills – places best discovered at a leisurely pace. Due to its unique character, the festival has received the patronage of the IPA Terre di Asolo e Monte Grappa and the UNESCO MAB Monte Grappa Biosphere Reserve.
The guiding theme of the May–June 2026 edition is “Local Talents”: people, art, music, local history, nature, and food and wine specialties. Each event operates on a donation basis; funds raised during this edition will be used for research and the publication of historical documents on the Church of San Martino from 1500 to 1900 at the The Episcopal Archives of Treviso.
The first event is a classical music concert featuring organ and trumpet, scheduled for Thursday, May 21, at 9:00 p.m. at the parish church in Cavaso del Tomba (TV). The performers are Manuel Tomadin and Diego Cal.
The second cultural event will take place on Friday, May 22, also at 9:00 p.m., at the Francesco Sartor Auditorium in Piazza Pieve in Cavaso del Tomba: 25 Years of Art and Nature, an evening featuring screenings of images from the Zanini Archive, music, and poetry. Hosted by Leonardo di Venere, with readings by Liliano Gioffrè and Maestro Antonio Camponogara at the piano.
Following this, over the course of four weeks, a series of evocative events will take place, including concerts, walks, tastings, reflections, meetings with authors, and art exhibitions.
