Imagine a place where the thunderous roar of electric guitars melds seamlessly with the clashing of swords and the spirited chants of medieval bards. Welcome to Adunata Feudalesimo e Libertà, an extraordinary event that fuses the intensity of metal music with the rich, immersive experience of medieval culture. Held annually, this festival transforms its venue into a time-warped realm where metalheads and history enthusiasts alike can indulge in a unique celebration of music, combat reenactments, artisan crafts, and historical performances. From the pounding rhythms of headlining metal bands to the mesmerizing displays of knightly valour, the Adunata offers an unparalleled journey into a world where the past and present collide in a symphony of sound and spectacle. A special thank you to Bagana for hosting us! The photos are by Dario De Marco.

Benedetta Baldin

Hi! My name is Benedetta, I’m 29 and I live in Northern Italy. My passion has always been music: I started taking guitar lessons when I was 6. Now I work as a sales representative, but in my free time I interview talented people, I spread the word about my favorite band (MoonSun), and I go to concerts or travel around Europe. I am a huge collector of anything Tolkien-related, autographs, merchandise, and CDs. I am quite an original person and don’t mind being the voice outside of the choir (even though I play in the church’s choir!).
