Notte di Fiaba 2024 is dedicated to Pocahontas

If you are looking for an event that mixes history and spectacle with a touch of magic, you cannot miss the Notte di Fiaba 2024. From August 28th to September 1st, Riva del Garda becomes the stage for the event that has been the most anticipated moment of the summer in Alto Garda since 1950.

After the success of last year’s edition dedicated to Gulliver’s Travels, the fairy tale chosen for this year takes a different direction. The protagonist of 2024 is, in fact, Pocahontas, the heroic and unconventional Disney princess who embodies courage, harmony with nature, and respect between different cultures. Let’s discover together what makes Pocahontas so interesting and why this edition will be truly unique.

 

 

Pocahontas: a legend of courage and connection

Let’s start by saying that the character of Pocahontas is inspired by a real Native American. In the early 1600s, this young woman married an explorer and moved to England. Her legendary figure has been romanticized over the centuries, becoming a symbol of peace and integration.

As in reality, in the Disney fairy tale, Pocahontas is a girl who, despite facing the challenges of her time, manages to build a bridge between two completely different worlds. With this story, the 2024 edition of Notte di Fiaba not only celebrates her heroic figure but also the universal message of respect between different cultures she brings with her.

During the event, the historic center of Riva del Garda will be transformed into a vibrant homage to Pocahontas’ story. Through spectacular scenery, interactive workshops, and theatrical performances, visitors will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the history and culture of Native American peoples. A fascinating and educational journey that promotes understanding and harmony: just as Pocahontas would have wished.
