Festival of the Ancient Parish Churches

From June 26: Second Edition of the “Festival of the Pievi”

Starting on June 26, the second edition of the Festival of the Pievi will take place—a musical event promoted by the Municipality of Capannori with the support of the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Lucca and in collaboration with various local musical organizations.
