The Festival of Health is perhaps the less spectacular of Venice festivities.

In a religious context it is an event dedicated to the Madonna in thanksgiving for her intercession which put an end to the plague which struck Venice between 1630-1631.

DANTE’S INFERNO IN THE CAVES IN PERTOSA
Until 31/12/2009

Grotte dell’Angelo in the Cilento National Park are the natural and most charming stage for Dante’s Inferno.

Every weekend Dante leads the audience through tunnels in the mountain, going from cave to cave, to meet Paolo and Francesca, Ulysses, Minos, Count Ugolino, and many others.

This is an extraordinary show, with unpublished music and new installations that stretches for a kilometer through the Grotte di Pertosa and Dante’s imaginary world.
