From 8 May to 12 September, Le Serre d’Estate returns with its twelfth edition: Kilowatt’s cultural festival hosted at Le Serre dei Giardini Margherita. The programme offers four months of free events, open to the entire city, featuring a multidisciplinary approach that brings together different artistic expressions.
Set within the green expanse of the Margherita Gardens, the festival has become one of Bologna’s most vibrant cultural hubs, where artists, residents and visitors come together to enjoy open-air evenings of music, screenings, talks, workshops, performances and activities related to social innovation and sustainability. Its inclusive spirit and free admission underline the mission of Kilowatt: making culture accessible to everyone.
Throughout the summer, Le Serre d’Estate will host concerts, discussions, family-friendly events and creative projects, transforming this beloved urban space into a laboratory of ideas and community participation.
