The great Festival dedicated to families and children returns to Florence from 23 to 25 May 2025.
The city during these days will be invaded by hundreds of events (performances, games, workshops, readings, concerts), all with free admission, aimed at children up to 12 years of age. ‘Let us build peace, the song of the world’ is the subtitle of this 12th edition, which in fact will have Peace and the Franciscan message of the “Canticle of Creatures” as common denominators of the entire event.
While Friday morning will be reserved for schools, Saturday and Sunday events will be open to all. Palazzo Vecchio, among the main venues, will host various theatre performances, concerts by small and large musicians and a workshop of peace flags... which will symbolically parade in Piazza Signoria; also this year it will be possible to spend an unforgettable Night at the Meuseum, not only at Palazzo Vecchio, but also at Palazzo Medici Riccardi and at the Museo Stefano Bardini.
Theatre, music and art workshops will be held at Le Murate, while in the former Dormitory of Santa Maria Novella, scenographic creations inspired by the ‘Cantico’ will be staged. The Istituto Geografico Militare will also participate, discovering geography and cartography, and the Istituto degli Innocenti, with performances, artistic and educational activities. But the list of places involved, and of events, is truly endless.
