There’s a festive atmosphere at the farm! This year, the Cingiallegre are celebrating a major milestone: 23 years together.

The event will take place on the weekend of Saturday, July 4, and Sunday, July 5, 2026, in Cingia de’ Botti (CR). These two days will be dedicated to fellowship, reflection, music, and sharing—all in true WWOOF style. Admission is by donation, and you can camp on-site!

Here’s what you can expect from the festival’s packed program:

Saturday, July 4

• 7:00 p.m. – Pizza party with friends.
• 9:30 p.m. – A chat with the Compagnia dei Genitori Instabili Film Club (Valle di Casalmaggiore) and a screening of some of their short films.
• Next up —a concert by Horo Choro (Elisa Ficarella on accordion and Marina Latorraca on brass), a musical bridge between the warmth of the Brazilian repertoire and the sensibility of the Balkan tradition. And then… more music, dancing, and fainting spells!

Sunday, July 5

• 11:00 a.m. – Creative workshop with Antonella and Dorella, the “sister-ellas,” for kids and adults who love to get messy and create.
• 1:00 p.m. – Group lunch.
• 3:30 p.m. – Poetare pace: a moment of discussion and reflection with Massimo Angelini and Esther Weber from the publishing house Temposospeso. A casual chat—two or three hundred words—about “war,” “peace,” and “poetry,” with our dear friend Mauro Ferrari sitting in the circle, listening and adding his own flavor to the conversation.
• Next up – It’s time to dance again to the music of Horo Choro.
• Finally — a farewell cocktail… and then everyone home, because we’ll be dead tired!

On both days

• Reception hosted by the Temposospeso publishing house – Resistance Publishing.
• Schedule for CAPRE DIEM Adopt-a-Pet Events (the booth will be open Saturday from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Sunday from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.).

Note for our four-legged friends: The farmhouse is already home to dogs, cats, swallows, lizards, and… quite a few ants! Please leave your pets at home to spare them all from having to live together against their will. Thank you!
