13th EDITION
Once again, it will be a large open space where differences become strength, arts and projects mix, and the city is involved in performances, films, meetings and discussions in the square.
In 2026, we will continue to weave together paths that arise during the year with national and international artists — to build together a lively, collective and constantly evolving cultural community.
Festival ORLANDO
Festival ORLANDO is an international queer festival of cinema, dance, theatre and meetings, aimed at a diverse audience. By bringing valuable artistic experiences to Bergamo, the Festival transforms the city into a meeting place where stereotypes can be overcome and horizons broadened.
Films, shows, exhibitions and workshops make up the rich programme of the event, which is developed through a network of relationships, cultural exchanges and national and international partnerships.
The project takes its name from the novel of the same name by Virginia Woolf and is a concrete example of how differences (whether cultural, gender, geographical origin or emotional orientation) are indispensable for the constitution of a cultural identity that is plural, alive and in constant transformation.
