Narnia Festival 2025

From July 14 to 27, 2025, with a rich preview from July 3 to 12, the appointment with the Narnia Festival, the great multidisciplinary kermesse that transforms Narni into an international crossroads of art, music and culture, returns. Now in its 14th edition, the festival is confirmed among the most articulated and prestigious summer events in Umbria, also awarded the Medal of the President of the Republic 2024.

With a program counting 55 events – including concerts, performances, master classes, exhibitions, workshops, cultural itineraries and food and wine tours – the Narnia Festival is a journey through the languages of art, in a continuous balance between tradition and experimentation. It ranges from classical music to opera, from sacred music to jazz, from theater to dance, passing through flamenco and Argentine tango, involving nationally and internationally renowned artists and guests.

Artistic direction is by pianist Cristiana Pegoraro, while musical direction is by Lorenzo Porzio. The performances will take place in the most striking locations in Narni’s historic center, transforming the city into a diffuse stage, where architectural beauty meets talent and creativity.

Guests at past editions have included prominent names such as Katia Ricciarelli, Margherita Buy, Enrico Vanzina, Corrado Augias, Massimo Lopez, Marisa Laurito, Pippo Franco, Giovanni Malagò and many others: evidence of the festival’s high artistic and cultural profile.

A distinctive aspect of the Narnia Festival is also the international educational component: more than 300 students participate each year in master classes with faculty members from prestigious institutions such as the Juilliard School in New York, the Mozarteum in Salzburg, Teatro alla Scala in Milan and the Accademia di Santa Cecilia.

All events are free admission subject to availability, offering an unmissable opportunity to experience cultural excellence in one of Umbria’s most charming villages.
