Accademia LeonardoEvents this year
The city's big festivals, food fairs and cultural seasons through the year. They're not just entertainment: they're the best training ground for your Italian. At a local festival you end up ordering, asking directions, chatting with locals: the real language, the kind books don't teach. If you can, line up a week of your course with one of these.
Luci d'Artista From November to January Salerno's centre is covered in light installations that draw visitors from all over the south. A crowded evening stroll: excellent for everyday Italian. | November–January |
Giffoni Film Festival In July the world's best-known film festival for young people takes place a few kilometres from Salerno, with thousands of young jurors. A youthful setting: perfect for the Italian your peers actually speak. | July |
