Nevee Outdoor Festival – NOF 2017 – 21, 22, 23 July, Sella Nevea (UD)

Nevee Outdoor Festival is an event open to everyone. Its goal is to promote our beautiful territory and let visitors, families and outdoor fans get to know this area’s potential in terms of sports and culture.

Participants are given the opportunity to take part in all the activities. Experts and professionals of each discipline are available for support and guidance.

Climbing, speed flying and highline are just a few key sports of this event: strong local athletes are putting up shows and demonstrations for everyone to enjoy. The bravest have the chance to try them personally, under appropriate supervision.

Don’t miss the party for our friend Leonardo Comelli, the musical concerts and Sunday’s lottery: great opportunities to have fun together!

The initial vision belongs to a group of friends who put together enthusiasm and desire to promote the area, finally giving birth to Nivee Outdoor Festival just a few months ago.

This idea became reality thanks to many volunteers, professionals and institutions. We all wish to remember Leonardo with this project.
