Program Overview
The Alfesta 2021 Program has plenty for you to do, but we have also allowed plenty of free-time for you to relax or check out other things to do and see in the region.
If you have attended Alfesta before, you probably know the way to get the most fun out of what's on offer.
If this is your first Alfesta, the best advice is to take a deep breath and dive in... Introduce yourself to as many other Alfesti as you can - you'll get told a lot of things you want to know without having to ask, as well as some things you didn't know you wanted to know! - and involve yourself in things with all the enthusiasm you can muster. You're amongst fellow Alfisti who share your passion for this Marque as well as a love of life itself.
