About

The Italian Fusion Festival is the biggest Italian Festival in Europe. The sixth edition will be on 22nd October 2023 from 6pm at the Well, Dublin.

The multicultural and multidisciplinary arts festival is organised by Radio Dublino, the only Italian language Radio programme in Ireland which started in 2013.

The festival, founded and directed by Maurizio Pittau, aims at promoting cultural exchanges between Italy and Ireland through several bands based in Ireland whose music is the result of the collaboration between Irish and Italian musicians. All participating bands have performed on Radio Dublino shows and offer an exciting overview of the latest music trends in the Dublin scene.

The Italian Fusion Festival Festival goals are:

• To raise awareness about new trends in Irish music, visual art and poetry resulting from the encounter of people with Irish and Italian backgrounds.
• To provide an opportunity for Italians and local mixed bands to perform live and increase their visibility.
• To encourage cultural exchanges between Italy and Ireland.
• To promote integration within the Italian community in Ireland.
• To offer a platform for music and art developments in multicultural Dublin.
