The new edition will take place in the provinces of Bergamo, Brescia, Como, Lecco, Monza and Brianza, Pavia, Sondrio and Varese, featuring a series of concerts, performances, talks, guided tours and films, with internationally renowned scholars and artists, and places just waiting to be discovered.

“Saints, Heretics and Sinners – From St Francis to The Name of the Rose”: this is the theme of MedFest 2026, which, as every year, creates a journey to be followed stage by stage, to be explored like a book of wonders, uncovering the surprising network of cultural connections that, in the Middle Ages, linked geographical, religious and cultural worlds that were seemingly far apart.
