An evening of folk culture with the El Salvanel Folk Group from Cavalese, featuring traditional dances, folk music and the traditional costumes of Val di Fiemme
An evening dedicated to the traditions of the Val di Fiemme with the "El Salvanel" Folk Group from Cavalese, which has been an ambassador for Trentino culture and folklore for over forty years.
The group's name is inspired by "Salvanel", the small and lively woodland sprite who features in ancient Fiemme legends, a symbol of the deep bond between the community and the local area. Founded in 1979, the group performs folk dances, traditional music and traditional costumes that recount stories, customs and moments of daily life in the Alpine valleys. The lively and engaging choreography recreates for the audience the atmosphere of festivals of yesteryear, filled with joy, conviviality and memories.
Over the years, El Salvanel has represented Trentino at numerous international events and festivals, taking the cultural heritage of the Val di Fiemme beyond Italy's borders.
Today, it continues to pass on this tradition by involving the younger generations and keeping alive a precious heritage of music, dance and local identity.
At 9.15 pm in the multi-purpose hall of the "La Gran Ciasa" community building in Soraga (tourist office). Admission free.
