🏢 About the local organisation
The Openair Cavaglia is a music festival which is completely immersed in nature. We believe the more diverse the music is, the funnier and more entertaining it is for the audience, so the bands play all genres, ranging from folk to rock, funk and more. At midnight everything gets mixed up with a free for everyone jam session, when even musicians from the crowd can join in. Additionally, there is also a dancefloor with a DJ.Through the Openair we want to acquaint the visitors with our region of Valposchiavo and promote our local identity by, for example, offering a wide palette of delicious dishes like polenta or pizza made by locals or local restaurants, making sure you will never eat the same thing twice.
