The first city making festival in Italy

For all city lovers

Utopian Hours is the one festival that tells stories about “making cities”: the ideas, projects and places that life improving scenarios in the cities across the world.

For three days the festival gives voice to the protagonists of these changes: city makers, activists, architects and innovators share their experience, stimulating new visions of Turin’s future and a reflection on the concept of the city.

Utopian Hours launches a manifesto for a new city making that introduces new concepts and invites guests and audience to suggest keywords for a new way of conceiving human evolution.
