When the summer arrives, the festivals and the decisions arrive too. You already know where to go this summer? You´re not going on holiday yet? Everything is relative to the budget that one has. Some are, of course, due to the high temperature in these months, that the Europeans have the urgency to be in the open air, to socialize more, to live the summer and its party and why not, to find some summer romance too.
Florence is a highly romantic city, full of history and tradition that will wrap you up like by magic. Travelling, in itself, to whichever part it is and however the way, is always an important interior transformation, that leaves us with an open heart towards new vibrations when we come back home.
The success of a festival isn´t exclusively in its proposals. We could say that it´s baed in the way in which they are organized and presented to a public which is more and more interested all the time in new formats, new options, new artists and diverse culture. Maybe in one way or another, trying to encompass the nighest amount of fields of interest in only one celebration of events during over a month is the best way to arrange the crowd, to make new proposals at the same time that you refresh a cultural space which might be traditional but that it´s risky, that it tries to establish new latitudes in its field of action.
Fortezza D´Estate is an example of this fresh tendency in Europe. From different angles and proposals, Fortezza tries to cover different crowds and interests, get to more people and to the international community above all, now that it´s the holidays and everyone goes away to different places, above all in August. Florence is definitely one of the most visited and busiest cities in the summer, and not just in the summer. It has a long and cultural tradition and its wonderful art pieces, museums and streets that you can observe and which one can, certainly, end up falling in love with. Fortezza D´Estate adds a little bit more to that dazzling combination, making these events a young approach to these recent and innovative proposals in film, music and cuisine among others.
All of this centred in the beautiful Fortezza de Basso, in itself a military jewel of the Renaissance architecture. This fortress was commissioned for the Duke Alessandro de Medici and built between the years on 1534 and 1537. Located in the historical centre of the city, this beautiful fortress has over 100.000 sq metres and it´s ideal for congresses, exhibitions and festivals of all types. That´s how, this year, with the Fortezza D´Estate Festival, this beautiful construction dresses up in its nicest possible way to receive international musicians, international cuisine of the highest level, sporting events and workshops among so many other samples to show that Florence isn´t just traditional but also highly modern in its recent cultural proposals.

That´s why there´s nothing like getting apartments in Florence and living those days of parties, concerts, food and much more. This city is probably one of the most beautiful in Italy, you´ll be completely hung up on it this summer.
