‘Semel in anno licet insanire’, ‘una volta all’anno è permesso far pazzie’, questa antica licenza romana sembra aver trovato terreno fertile a Fano, la città del Carnevale, sede di uno dei più famosi carnevali d’Italia.

Oltre un mese di festeggiamenti: le vie e la gente della città si spogliano delle usuali abitudini, si tuffano in quel turbinio di feste e sfilate che il Carnevale di Fano offre senza alcuna parsimonia e tutti finiscono per rimanere coinvolti nella gaia atmosfera di spensierato divertimento.

The historical re-enactment of Fano in which the glories of the Malatesta Lordship will be relived! Organized by the historical group La Pandolface, it is the result of increasingly detailed philological research, also thanks to the support of the Centro Studi Malatestiani. The event includes historical reconstruction spaces with markets, shows such as the Wedding of Pandolfo Malatesta and many activities and spaces also dedicated to children, in addition to the famous games of the districts.

Passaggi Festival della Saggistica, now in its 11th edition, is the only Italian cultural event dedicated to books of this literary genre dedicated to analysis and study, comparison and in-depth analysis.

From Arcades to vinyl records, from the advent of synthesizers to the cars that made films and TV series famous... all this and much more are the glorious 80s, which in Italy represented a watershed between the years of lead and the advent of the digital revolution. That incredible period lives on today thanks to Boomerang, a festival to tell the story of the last decade before the internet and cell phones, which will bring out numerous memories in the older ones and will be able to amaze and fascinate the younger ones.
