The Calendar
The schedule of the Festival is made official at least 20 days prior to the beginning of the events: the calendar reports the places, the time, the number and the names of the choirs taking part in each performance.
The schedule is drawn up by the artistic director who takes into consideration both the repertoire and the number of members in each choir. The artistic director will try to enhance each choir’s repertoire as far as possible by selecting the most appropriate venue for their performances.
Each choir can generally perform two to six times during the whole Festival.
GENERAL PROGRAMME
The Festival will begin on Wednesday June 16 at 9.00 pm with the opening concert and will end on Sunday June 20 at 10.30 with the closing ceremony "Festa dell'Arrivederci"
Each choir can freely choose the period of stay according to their needs and availability.
This choice can be made between the following three possibilities:
- Whole Festival period: arrival on Wednesday, departure on Sunday
- Stay of four days: arrival on Thursday, departure on Sunday;
- Three-day stay: arrival on Friday, departure on Sunday
The period of stay chosen must be indicated on the registration form.
