Lignano Sabbiadoro at a glance

Linguaviva Lignano is in Lignano Sabbiadoro (Friuli-Venezia Giulia). Outside the classroom this is where the language gets practised: at the coffee counter, in the square, at the market.

Events 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.

Stagione balneare
From June to September Lignano fills with families and young people, between the beach, sports and seafront bars. An informal, busy setting: excellent for socialising in Italian.
June–September
