A special evening to celebrate the winners of Val di Fassa Running: time for the athletes' awards ceremony and a performance by the "Musega de Poza" band, for a finale that combines sport, emotion and Ladin identity
After five days of running along scenic trails, challenging climbs and spectacular views, Val di Fassa Running 2025 is gearing up for its grand finale. On Friday 27 June, at the end of the famous Dolomite stage with its high-altitude finish at "Buffaure", Pozza will host a double event open to the public, celebrating hard work and enchanting tradition. In the evening, the official awards ceremony for the stage race will take place, one of the most eagerly awaited moments of the entire week. The athletes who competed in the five stages - including the queen of the stages, 7.1 km and 736 metres of elevation gain - will be celebrated and individual and team awards will be presented. It will be an opportunity to applaud those who tackled the 50 km challenge through the most picturesque locations in Val di Fassa with determination and passion.
The evening will be rounded off by the "Musega de Poza", the historic band of Pozza, founded in 1933 from the dream of eight young men and the visionary energy of Paolo Cincelli. Since then, it has become the musical voice of the community: from village festivals to the peaks of the Vaiolet Towers, where in 2023 it played at 2,800 metres to celebrate 90 years of history. Today, under the direction of bandmaster Giancarlo Dorich, the band has almost seventy members and continues to inspire Ladin pride with passion and strong roots.
From 9 p.m. at the events pavilion in Pozza.
