On May 23 and 24, 2026, in Mira, within the historic settings of the Widmann and Moscheni Volpi Villas along the Brenta Riviera, Ancestrale Festival – La Società Dolce debuts, a new cultural event dedicated to the rebirth of community spirit and the practice of hope. The festival takes inspiration from ancestral wisdom, the model of master bees, and harmony with nature, proposing meetings, conferences, performances, and immersive activities open to everyone.
The theme of the first edition, “Practicing Hope” invites a rediscovery of the strength of connections, shared care, and active participation as tools to face the present with a regenerative outlook.
All events are free, with reservations on Eventbrite. In case of rain, outdoor activities will be moved indoors. Entrance to the exhibitions at Villa Widmann is reduced to 5 euros for festival visitors.
Ancestrale Festival is a project of Honeybee ETS, supported by the Municipality of Mira and the cultural direction of Carola Minincleri Colussi. The festival aims to connect art, nature, and community in a shared experience of care and transformation, immersed in the natural beauty of the Brenta Riviera.
