La Storia in piazza – History in the Square

“History in the Square” returns from March 26th to 29th, 2026, at Palazzo Ducale in Genoa, dedicated to history.

The theme of the 15° edition of ‘History in the Square’ will be “Natural, Natural and Unnatural in History”. The event will take place, as always, at Palazzo Ducale, in the heart of Genoa, with four days available from March 14th to 17th. The Genoese event is one of the national reference festivals on historical topics not reserved for specialists.

History in the square: conferences and concerts

The event is condensed into four days filled with free offerings: over 100 conferences, interviews, performances, concerts, workshops, and activities for schools, as well as exhibitions, all revolving around the chosen theme. As every year, there will be stations for the sale of volumes presented at each event.
