The Book of Revelation will be the motivating text of this year’s Biblical Festival, now in its eighteenth edition. After a long interruption due to covid, the Festival, promoted by the Society of St. Paul and the diocese of Vicenza, will be holding numerous live events from 5-29 May in the cities and provinces of the dioceses participating in this project (Vicenza, Verona, Padua, Adria-Rovigo, Vittorio Veneto, Treviso). On June 18 and 19, the program will shift to a “weekend” edition of the Festival, focusing on the more remote parts of the Venice region, so as to encourage people to discover some of the overlooked areas of the territory, which are often harder to reach and therefore somewhat neglected by animation projects.

In the second half of October, the Festival will launch a new cycle of events entitled “School of Thought,” offering participants formation on biblical and cultural material. The purpose of the input is to foster the use of critical thinking in interpreting our complex modern world.
