Festival Italiano 2019

The largest Italian Festival in New Zealand is back in Auckland, with the very popular Festival Italiano street event in Newmarket adding fashionable Teed St to the existing layout, which also includes Osborne St, Kent St, Rialto Centre and Lumsden Green.

There will be al fresco lunches with leading Italian restaurants, a pop-up Italian bar and a market with over 40 stalls—along with live music and entertainment, art activities for children, tastings, workshops and exhibits, Italian cars and scooters, spot prizes and the chance to win a fantastic trip to Rome or Milan.

Auckland’s Dante Alighieri Society organises Festival Italiano in collaboration with the Newmarket Business Association, and the generous support of the Waitematā Local Board. The major corporate sponsor and partner is Peroni.
