There is a place where music meets the sky and tradition resonates among the great walls of the Dolomites. It is the Rifugio Averau, which on Saturday, August 29, welcomes one of the most evocative events of the 48th Fèŝta de ra Bàndes, a historic event that has been celebrating band music, folklore, and the identity of alpine communities in Cortina for decades.
On the spectacular panoramic terrace, at an altitude of 2,416 meters, the Complesso Bandistico Montefiorino will bring the rhythm of marches, the colors of costumes, and the energy of a popular festival capable of uniting generations and territories to the high mountains.
From 12:30 p.m., the notes will accompany lunch and the cuisine of the Rifugio, transforming a day in the peaks into an experience to be lived with all the senses: music, flavors, tradition, and a unique Dolomitic scenery.
Reaching the Averau is part of the experience: from the Passo Giau area with the Fedare chairlift, or from the Rifugio Scoiattoli, reachable by the 5 Torri chairlift and connected to the Averau by a scenic path of approximately 30 minutes.
Let yourself be won over by the music. Go up high. Experience the festival where the Dolomites serve as the stage.
