Mantua Literature Festival 2016

The Unipol Group, once again confirming its commitment in the area of Culture and Artistic Heritage, will support the Mantua Festivaletteratura literature festival, this year to be held from 7 to 11 September.

Since 1997, Festivaletteratura has been one of the most eagerly awaited Italian cultural events, consisting of five days of meetings with authors, readings, guided tours, performances and concerts with artists coming from all over the world to meet in Mantua and experience an unforgettable festive atmosphere. The huge success with the public in 2015 – over 100,000 visitors and over 1,400 press articles – made it an event not to be missed on the Italian cultural scene.

The Group has been linked to the Festival since 2013, with a double presence. On the one hand, it supports, through its consolidated partnership with Librerie Coop, the creation of the largest temporary bookshop of the Festival overlooking one of the main city squares. On the other hand, it associates its brand with many of the events scheduled. In particular, Unipol will promote the event scheduled for 8 September, “Our Sea”, with Franco Cardini and Alessandro Vanoli, while the Unipolis Foundation will be present at the meetings “Key words” with Ilvo Diamanti and “Facts and figures” with Ilvo Diamanti and Nando Pagnoncelli held on the same date, as well as the event “How much is the Mafias’ GDP worth?” with Isaia Sales and Enrico Fontana scheduled for 10 September.
