The Festival dei Passaggi is held every year in June and attracts thousands of visitors from all over Italy and abroad.

Opening ceremony and fashion show

The Passaggi Festival opens with an opening ceremony held in Piazza XX Settembre, the heart of the historic center of Fano. During the ceremony, the artists and performers taking part in the event are presented and the activities officially kicked off.

After the opening ceremony, there is a parade of the "passagers", i.e. the artists and performers who perform during the Festival. The parade winds through the streets of the historic center of Fano and is a unique opportunity to admire the artists in costume and the artistic installations that enliven the city.

Art exhibitions and installations

During the Passaggi Festival, the historic center of Fano becomes an open-air museum. In various parts of the city, in fact, art exhibitions and installations are set up that involve the artists and citizens.

Among the art exhibitions not to be missed, we point out the one set up at the Federiciana Library , which houses the works of local and international artists, and the one set up at the Palazzo del Podestà , which exhibits works by emerging artists.

Lorem Ipsum è considerato il testo segnaposto standard sin dal sedicesimo secolo, quando un anonimo tipografo prese una cassetta di caratteri e li assemblò per preparare un testo campione.

È sopravvissuto non solo a più di cinque secoli, ma anche al passaggio alla videoimpaginazione, pervenendoci sostanzialmente inalterato. Fu reso popolare, negli anni ’60, con la diffusione dei fogli di caratteri trasferibili “Letraset”, che contenevano passaggi del Lorem Ipsum, e più recentemente da software di impaginazione come Aldus PageMaker, che includeva versioni del Lorem Ipsum.
