Spoleto Spring Events
Download the full calendar of spring events

Three months of events for a total of 56 activities from Sunday 19 March to Wednesday 21 June 2023. This, in short, is the programme of Accade in primavera a Spoleto, the spring events programme organised by the Municipality of Spoleto in collaboration with local associations and institutions, dedicated to music, theatre, readings, art, initiatives for children and families and sport.

Among the events is Spoleto sul Palco, the first edition of the review that will be held at the Caio Melisso Theatre – Spazio Carla Fendi where four amateur companies from Spoleto will perform. With brilliant comedies and prose shows, both in Italian and in dialect, they will bear witness to the tradition of Spoleto in the context of the month dedicated to memory and city identity.

Once again this year there will be a study week organised by the CISAM Foundation, now in its LXX edition, which from 13 to 19 April will propose meetings on Time in the Early Middle Ages.

From 2 to 6 May, the International Dance Competition will be held at the Teatro Nuovo Gian Carlo Menotti. The IDC is the only Italian competition recognised at an international level and included in the International Federation of Ballet Competitions’ list of the most prestigious competitions.

Also returning is the Vaporetti Race, in its 57th edition, which will be run from Friday 16 to Sunday 18 June.

Spoleto in Fiore (Spoleto in Bloom),the market dedicated to flowers and gardening will colour Corso Mazzini, Piazza Pianciani and Piazza Fontana from 19 to 21 May.

On 31 March, Merenda nell’oliveta (A snack in the olive grove) is scheduled, an initiative organised by the member cities of the Association Città dell’Olio (Oil Cities). A day in the open air immersed in the olive-growing landscape, rediscovering the value of conviviality and being together while discovering evocative and lesser-known places. Participants will be involved in various activities such as educational workshops, tasting courses, storytelling with experts (olive growers, millers, agronomists, historians), poetry readings on the theme of oil, dance performances and plays.

There will also be numerous events for children, young people and families such as Spoleto in Gioco (21 May), an entire day dedicated to playful workshop activities for children and young people in Piazza Garibaldi, Corso Garibaldi, Cantiere Oberdan, Villa Redenta Park, Piazzetta dell’Erba and the San Nicolò Monumental Complex.

The opening of Palazzo Collicola exhibitions is scheduled on Saturday 1 April at 11.30 am. Protagonists will be Michael Venezia with Compilations, curated by Davide Silvioli and Nancy Genn with Beyond the Grid, curated by Francesca Valente. The exhibitions will be open until 31 May 2023.

Once again this year there will be a study week organised by the CISAM Foundation, now in its LXX edition, which from 13 to 19 April will propose meetings on Time in the Early Middle Ages.

As part of the celebrations for the 825th anniversary of the Cathedral’s dedication, the Archbishop of Spoleto-Norcia Monsignor Renato Boccardo with the Scientific Committee composed of Professors Massimiliano Bassetti, Maria Teresa Gigliozzi, Enrico Menestò, Emore Paoli, Serena Romano, Giovanna Sapori, and Bruno Toscano, conceived and promoted the exhibition Sacred Spoleto 1200. On the 825th Anniversary of the Cathedral’s Dedication, produced by Opera Laboratori with a catalogue by Sillabe.
