When the mountain lives of hospitality and tourism even without the fruits of the forest or snow. The balance of “Una montagna di eventi” (A mountain of events) , in the months of July and August in Desulo, is more than positive. A project, as stated in a press release, «written by the Pro Loco and created in collaboration with the Municipality» and the support of the regional department of Tourism, Commerce and Crafts, <which since its presentation, has grasped its uniqueness».

As highlighted in the press release, signed by Alessandra Claudia Peddio, president of the Pro Loco of Desulo , «the project included a series of events starting from July 20th with the Freestyle Show in a unique and rare location, at 1,370 meters above sea level, S'Arena, Su Filariu. A unique sports show in Sardinia, created and desired by the many motorcycle enthusiasts of this community associated with the association. The internationally renowned pilot Alvaro Dal Farra with a series of equally successful colleagues who came from all over Europe, performed under the eyes of almost two thousand spectators for an entire night, with an unparalleled show».

Alessandra Claudia Peddio also refers to «the second event, created and proposed by car and motorcycle enthusiasts, which saw the town of Desulo as the protagonist. Auto-Moto high-altitude gathering, with 200 participants arriving from all over Sardinia. The guests had the opportunity to get to know Desulo and its mountains also through a short tourist tour, and then stayed in the town for a social lunch based on typical local products».

Perhaps the most anticipated event was “Magic under the stars at high altitude”, on August 14. «At S'Arena», the president of the Pro Loco highlights, «there was an unparalleled show. A project born in collaboration with the Desulo chef Ivan Marcis, owner of the Golden Coffee in Cagliari, and his collaborator Alberto Zanda . The main objective was the tourist and environmental promotion of the area through the presentation of typical products». It was impossible to accommodate all the requests: 300 people were able to experience a magical evening, relying on the professionalism of the students of the Desulo Hotel Institute.

The occasion to present the film project by director Andrea Pecora and his collaborators, “A Desulo”, a short film dedicated to the Desulese Woman and the Women of Sardinia, custodians of ancient traditions and knowledge. It will be relaunched by National Geographic and Nowness with English subtitles.

Various moments of entertainment. From fashion with the stylists Carlo Petromilli , the Sartoria Modolo , Roberto Stella and Maria Ausilia Marongiu . The moment of observation of the sky, the stars and the constellations by the astrophysicist Manuel Floris , director of the Planetarium of L'Unione Sarda, was a great success. And finally the concert by Piero Marras .

"A tireless Pro Loco ready to continue its programmatic work throughout 2024, invites tourists to continue visiting Desulo and the fellow villagers scattered throughout Sardinia to hold on tight to their Love for their community. We want to thank the Desulo community from the bottom of our hearts for the recognition of the work done and the many tourists who have visited and stayed in Desulo like never before", underlines Alessandra Claudia Peddio. "As President of the Pro Loco of Desulo, my dream is to see all the Associations work together, according to the even banal but always true principle that "unity is strength". This is a source of satisfaction and an incentive to always work better".
