Planetaria was created as a cross-disciplinary alliance, with the goal of making complex issues such as climate change, social and economic sustainability, circular economy and pollution accessible to a wide audience. Actors, musicians, scientists and writers will join forces in free shows, talks and performances, offering tools to reflect on today’s challenges and imagine possible futures.

The heart of the festival will be the Imaginary Conferences, an original format that captivated audiences in its first edition. On stage at Teatro della Pergola, Matilda De Angelis, Pilar Fogliati, Teresa Saponangelo, Matteo Giuggioli and Nicolas Maupas will perform alongside scientists such as Giulio Boccaletti, Claudia Pasquero and Francesco Perrini. Every evening at 9 pm, science and storytelling will merge into powerful theatrical performances.
