FAI Summer Evenings | Shooting Stars night

On the occasion of the shooting stars night, the Castle of Avio extends its opening hours for a magical evening under the stars
SATURDAY 10 AUGUST 2024
At 19.00 and 19.15, two special guided tours will lead the public to discover the Castle of Avio, one of the most evocative monuments in Trentino: frescoed rooms and terraced gardens to be enjoyed after sunset.
At the end of the visit, a candlelight dinner will be served in the Contessa Castelbarco garden, exceptionally open for the occasion. The dinner will be organised by the Locanda al Castello. Musical accompaniment with flute, mandola and violin will be provided during dinner.
Guided tours will only start at 19.00 and 19.15 (duration 1 hour). The ticket office will be open 15 minutes before the event.
At the end of both tours, dinner will be served outdoors (or in the inn, in case of rain).
