This year, the festival has a program full of encounters, discoveries, and experiences in store for you, featuring numerous lectures as well as entertainment and activities for people of all ages.
And because adventure is something the whole family can enjoy, there will be a program for the kids, too!
While parents attend the lectures, the little ones can enjoy activities designed especially for them.
