On Sunday, October 4, Borgo Dora transforms for the fifth edition of the Festa del Balon, organized by Impresa Sociale Balon together with the commercial and cultural businesses in the neighborhood.
Beyond the traditional vintage and antique market and the opening of historic shops, the day offers a packed program of music and entertainment.
Live Music
In Piazza Borgo Dora, from noon to 7 PM, rock and funky concerts alternate, with the Big Blues Jam closing the day. In the central area of Via Borgo Dora, also from noon to 7 PM, a stage is dedicated to the great icons of international music - from Freddie Mercury to David Bowie, passing through the Ramones - with talks hosted by Mao.
Vinyl Records, Vintage Cars and Meetings
At the Cortile del Maglio, the Patchanka Edition takes place, featuring a vinyl market and DJ sets dedicated to 1990s sounds: at 3 PM meetings are scheduled with Luca Morino and Federico Sacchi. An exhibition of historic Ford Mustang cars is also planned, curated by the car club West Custom Italy.
Families and Guided Tours
At Scuole Cottolengo, a kids' area is set up with free educational workshops and inflatables. Guided tours of the neighborhood and the Sermig are also scheduled, along with a photography contest.
