The Spirit of the Planet, the largest festival in Italy entirely dedicated to the world's native cultures and the celebration of the traditions, histories, and values of the Earth's peoples. A unique event, which for over twenty years has welcomed thousands of visitors to an immersive experience of music, dance, spirituality, crafts, gastronomy, and human encounters, this year is even bigger: two locations, one spirit, for a festival spanning over a month of events in two iconic locations in the Bergamo area, Casirate d'Adda and Piario, transformed for the occasion into authentic multicultural villages. An immense program for a boundless experience Over 400 free events, including concerts, dances, sacred rites, conferences, workshops, activities for children and families, workshops, small, scattered performances, and moments of authentic encounter with representatives of native cultures. A message that goes beyond entertainment The Spirit of the Planet aims to be, today more than ever, a living manifesto of peace, dialogue, and brotherhood among peoples, says Ivano Carcano, founder and organizer of the festival. It is not just a spectacle, but a profound experience that invites reflection on the themes of the encounter between cultures, the beauty of diversity, the strength of traditions, and the need to rediscover an authentic connection with the earth and with others. It is a festival that celebrates roots, yet looks to the future: an invitation to pause, listen, learn, and discover distant worlds that, for a few days, become close, tangible, to be experienced with all the senses. A festival that speaks to everyone: music and culture enthusiasts, families, the curious, those seeking a different experience, and those eager to be surprised. An event that welcomes without barriers, open to all, designed for anyone who wants to experience a world of encounter, exchange, and mutual respect.Dances in traditional costumes of the people of Thrace, Greece
