Discover a hidden and wonderful Verona: the city of Tocatì! An experience that will allow you to explore a different side of Verona and to live firsthand an extraordinary cultural tradition while contributing to its future.

Let yourself be guided by the players of the Associazione Giochi Antichi (AGA) community, as you listen to the story of the revival of a traditional game, S-ciànco, that sparked a great movement, both local and global.

From the heart of the historic centre to the city's hills, you will come into contact with a world that speaks of community, challenge, conviviality and belonging.

Discover the taverns of the Carega neighbourhood where AGA was born 25 years ago, the Cortile Mercato Vecchio where the first S-ciànco Tournament was held, and Ponte Pietra, the backdrop of the earliest Tocatì Festivals. Enjoy a scenic funicular ride up to Castel San Pietro — home for many years to the finals of the Veronese S-ciànco Championship — and take in its breathtaking view over the city.

Then make your way down to the Parco delle Colombare on the Torricelle hill, where Casa Tocatì — a park dedicated to traditional games and sports — was born, and where it will be time to play s-ciànco!

Round off your walk with an aperitivo in the Parco delle Colombare, as your gaze drifts over Verona in the golden light of sunset.
