The 9th edition of the Folk festival in the Sant'Andrea borough is held on the occasion of the celebration for San Gaudenzo, the Holy Patron of Rimini.
The festival is an opportunity to listen to music, dancing in the street, enjoying the traditional Romagna cuisine and in particular the local typical food. The festival aims to create a bridge to the past through the discovery of ancient venues and with initiatives linked to culture, art and well-being.
In 2017 the Festival re-introduces the theme "Between literature,food and wine" and this year's festival will be dedicated to Piero Meldini, an Italian writer.
