Piazza Grande

Piazza Grande is pure Locarno – 8,000 seats, one of the largest screens in the world, all of it outdoors, under the stars, featuring some of the year’s most anticipated movies. Throughout the Festival, awards are given to special guests onstage. On certain nights, a second screening takes place just before midnight, giving space to classic masterpieces or genre-bending oddities.

A Festival of Limitless Possibilities

by Raphaël Brunschwig

“

Of all film festivals, Locarno's is the most magical.

“

Eight thousand people outside watching movies at night is quite moving. It is the most beautiful and emotional film festival of its kind.[...] Locarno turned out to be the most unforgettable experience that stays with one's soul.
