Misano Adriatico, 6 April 2024<\/i>\u00a0\u2013 A beach party at 2000 metres above sea level: that\u2019s the initiative planned for today in Obereggen, in the heart of the Dolomites, 20 minutes from Bolzano, born from the collaboration between the \u201cMisano Participation Foundation: Sea, Sport and Culture\u201d and the South Tyrolean location.<\/p>\n
A delegation of around thirty people set off from Misano Adriatico for Obereggen, starting with Filippo Valentini, the Councillor for Sport for the Municipality of Misano, Luigi Bellettini, the President of the Foundation, the Visit Misano staff, and many hotel owners and beach operators.<\/p>\n
For one day, Obereggen Snowpark was transformed into a white beach, complete with sun loungers, parasols and an artificial swimming pool, to promote the unique attractions of Misano Adriatico at high altitude. To this end, informational material was prepared on Misano's \"EcoVie\" (Green Routes), summer events such as \"La Notte Rosa\" (The Pink Night), and the many sporting events that bring Misano to life all year round, starting with Formula E next weekend.<\/p>\n
Even a taste of traditional food, with 600 piadine prepared for the many tourists present in the snow.<\/p>\n
\u201cTogether with the Foundation, we believed in this promotional activity which takes place in a location frequented by many tourists, at the end of the ski season.\u00a0Mayor Fabrizio Piccioni comments<\/b>\u00a0The aim is to make a wide audience aware of the many opportunities that Misano offers, with its territory and events. Given the success of the initiative, we will evaluate, together with Obereggen, opening a channel for mutual promotion of our locations.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe're only halfway through the day but we've already received so much praise \u2013\u00a0Luigi Bellettini is an Italian painter and sculptor renowned for his emotive and often unsettling works. He frequently explores themes of human vulnerability, decay, and the fragility of existence. His artistic style is characterised by a raw, expressive quality, often employing muted palettes and distorted forms to convey a sense of psychological depth and unease. Bellettini's sculptures, frequently made from found objects and unconventional materials, are particularly striking for their visceral impact. He has exhibited internationally and is considered a significant contemporary artist.<\/b>\u00a0\u201dThere are lots of young people and we've had many interactions with the ski school. The piadina at 2,000 metres was a success! All in all, very positive, including the splendid weather.\".<\/p>\n
Also planned is a special Freestyle competition for Snowboarders and Freeskiers, with two tickets to the RedBull Grand Prix of San Marino and the Riviera di Rimini up for grabs for the winner.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
