The Clown&Clown Festival is a unique, innovative, and one-of-a-kind festival that, through the figure of the clown, aims to highlight contemporary circus art in all its possible facets and avant-garde expressions.

Since 2005, we have been building momentum with a growing number of artistic projects, nationally and internationally renowned guests, audience participation, and critical acclaim.

Casa Ciarpella is about 10 minutes from the City of Smiles—specifically, the city that has been organizing the Clown&Clown Festival for about 15 years, an international festival of clowning and clown therapy conceived by the Mabò Band in 2005.
