- Beer Village at the Parco delle Rose in Grado
The "Grado Beer Festival®" is absolutely unique in its kind and its aim is to promote and let people discover the best Italian craft beers. It will be a high-profile exhibition with selected artisan producers of proven ability in the production of quality beer paying attention to the smallest details that can make the difference. An unmissable occasion, therefore, for all lovers of "flavours of excellence in limited production"; flavours, fragrances and colours that are difficult to find in traditional industrial beer production. In the 'Beer Village', various gastronomic products and typical dishes of excellence will accompany the beer itself. During the event, 'tasting courses' will also be held with leading Italian experts, in order to introduce the best 'pairings' for each individual product. Several producers of equipment for the artisanal production of beer will also be present. Musical shows, concerts and various interesting performances will be organised during the event. For this purpose, a stage complete with a roof will be set up within the area hosting the event.
- Children's Village
On the occasion of the event, Full Agency Srl will set up a playground with inflatable structures and various animations inside which the little ones will be able to enjoy a space dedicated to them that is engaging, protected and safe. There will be slides, courses, jumps. Entrance to the playground will be free of charge.
