Danzare il Tramonto festival

Dancing il Tramonto is the festival curated by the C&C Cultural Association that combines contemporary dance, nature and landscape in a sensory experience at sunset. Now in its seventh edition, the project invites the public to rediscover the evocative environments of the Parco dei Gessi Bolognesi e Calanchi dell'Abbadessa, crossing the territories of Ozzano dell'Emilia, San Lazzaro di Savena and Bologna.

Six free events, distributed between late July and early August 2025, offer a nature walk, accompanied by an expert environmental guide, until reaching a hidden place where a site-specific performance can be seen. Each date begins at 6:30 p.m. and takes place in the intimate and suspended atmosphere of sunset. The titles of the performances will remain a surprise until the last moment.

Performances are held without sound systems and lights, with wireless headphone listening, to reduce environmental impact and encourage a more collected and profound enjoyment. At the end, participants will be escorted with flashlights back to the staging areas and welcomed to a convivial space with tastings by local producers, reinforcing the link between culture, territory and community.
