This annual event has been held for a number of years and once again, will illuminate the skies over the beautiful plateau with sparkling fireworks. Known locally as ‘Fiocchi di Luce’ it translates as flakes of light referring to the snow which surrounds the small town of Asiago in North East Italy in the heart of the Veneto mountains in the Alpine foothills.

This will be a great opportunity to spend Valentine’s weekend with the ones you love in a stunning setting watching the skies overhead lit up with specialist pyrotechnics.

In 2014 the world remembered the 100th anniversary of the beginning of World War I on 28th July, but here we are in 2016, in the midst of a world of geopolitical futures and the ongoing issue in Syria, peace is a fragile thing.

The Flakes of Light shows are three different events which are guided by the principles of ‘Light’, ‘Peace’ and ‘Love’.
