SUMMARY:Camellia Flower Festival Locarno 2025: Dates\, Tickets\, Guide
DESCRIPTION:The Camellia Flower Festival in Locarno is the most important event of its kind in Europe. \n\n\n\nWe have visited the beautiful setting of Camellia Park in Locarno on numerous occasions. During springtime\, when the temperatures north of the Alps are still chilly\, Locarno is our favorite escape. \n\n\n\nDue to its sheer size\, the Camellia Flower Exhibit is outperformed only by similar initiatives promoted in Japan\, the home country of this exquisite flower. The Camellia Park bordering Lago Maggiore features over 200 types of this flower\, splendidly arranged by experienced gardeners. \n\n\n\nCamellia flowers are considered an enrichment to the botanical patrimony. They are present in the private and public gardens of the Locarno region. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow long does it take to fully explore the Camellia Flower Festival?\n\n\n\nThe Camellia Flower Festival in Locarno typically takes place over five days. To fully explore the festival\, you might want to allocate a few hours to a half-day\, depending on your interest level and pace. A visit can be as short as a couple of hours if you just want to see the main exhibits\, or longer if you wish to immerse yourself in all the festival has to offer. \n\n\n\nHere's a suggested plan: \n\n\n\n\nSpend about 1 to 2 hours admiring the over 200 varieties of camellias and enjoying the floral installations.\n\n\n\nAllow additional time for concerts\, plant markets\, and other activities that interest you.\n\n\n\nTake breaks at the on-site café to enjoy local refreshments and soak in the atmosphere.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOpening times for Camelie Locarno\n\n\n\nWednesday through Sunday from 9:30 AM - 5:30 PM. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat are the entry fees for the Camellia Flower Festival?\n\n\n\nThe entry fees for the Camellia Flower Festival in Locarno are as follows: \n\n\n\n\nAdults: CHF 10\n\n\n\nSeniors and Students: CHF 8\n\n\n\nChildren up to 16 years old: Free admission

SUMMARY:Locarno Film Festival 2018
DESCRIPTION:Summer is on in Locarno\, and with summer comes the most awaited time of the year: The Locarno Film Festival. \nThis year\, the festival will take place on from August 1 to 11\, and it will be the 71st edition of one of the oldest movie festivals in the history of cinema. Here are six highlights that you should not miss if you plan on visiting the festival. \n#locarnoexperience at laRotonda\nIn a way\, laRotonda is a festival within the festival. Just a few meters away from the glamour of Locarno's old town and the Piazza Grande\, laRotonda is a lively place to spend a perfect evening in Locarno. \nThere is a crafts market with handmade goods\, and there is a huge selection of food stalls with dishes from all over the world. We're talking spicy vegan curry or decadent\, chocolate filled Belgian gaufre. Not to mention\, a different concert takes place every night! You can take a stroll around laRotonda or spend the whole night there to enjoy the truly unique atmosphere. \nWatch a movie on Piazza Grande\nThe most important movies of the festival will be shown in the magnificent setting of Piazza Grande. Be sure to buy your ticket and reserve a seat under the stars\, surrounded by old town buildings. Nothing captures the feeling of the Locarno Film Festival better than this. \n\n  \nGo star-spotting around Locarno\nVisit Locarno during the day or the evening and keep on eye for actors and directors spending their time around the city. You may find yourself drinking an espresso next to one of your favorite stars. This year's guest of honor will be Ethan Hawke\, so who knows? You might be lucky enough to meet him in person! \n\n  \n#locarnoexperience at Locarno Garden La Mobiliare\nThe Locarno Garden is a gem among all the festival events. A beautiful setting inside a garden in the heart of the old town\, there will be music\, food and drinks and an entirely relaxed atmosphere. \nWe were there last year and we fell in love with the big colorful cushions\, the wooden benches and the soft lights. It is the perfect place to visit while waiting for your next movie. \nSee a movie at Palacinema\nNewly restored for last year's 70th anniversary\, the Palacinema is a beautiful venue for movie lovers. Think elegant\, modern design meets a top quality movie theater. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\nA post shared by Alessandra Litta Modignani (@alittam) on Aug 6\, 2017 at 2:04pm PDT \n\n\n \nSpot the Leopard madness all over town\nWe have already covered the Pardo madness that hits Locarno when the festival arrives. It is much fun to see the entire town transformed into a parade of big felines\, leopard patterns and general jungle colors... \n\n  \nMore information\nThe full festival program will be revealed on July 11\, 2018\, at 5 PM. Check out Locarno Film Festival website for all the latest information.
