From 4 to 15 July 2024, Chiesuola will host the eighth edition of the Harvest Festival, an event that celebrates the agricultural tradition of the city of Latina and its communities. What began as a simple neighborhood event has now become an important opportunity to promote the area and its historical and cultural roots.

This year’s festival offers a rich calendar of events ranging from culture to entertainment, from gastronomy to folklore. Every day, starting at 6:00 p.m., visitors will be able to attend dance shows, sports exhibitions, debates, book presentations and musical and folkloric performances. In addition, there will be exhibitions of vintage tractors and cars and a historical reenactment of wheat threshing.
