Locarno e Valli Art Weekend is dedicating the weekend of 11 and 12 October 2025 to discovering the cultural and artistic wonders of the region. The rich programme of activities is aimed at audiences of all ages and is spread out over the weekend so that participants can attend multiple events over the course of two days, transforming the weekend into a veritable artistic tour of museums and valleys.
