History
The festival was founded in 2006 by writer Alessandro Agostinelli,[5] who is the current director.[6][7][8]
In 2009 Festival del Viaggio won the "Brand New Italian Festival Award" in Bologna.[9] In 2010 the festival presented a walk in the Florentine sky: the tightrope walker Andrea Loreni walked on the wire 50 meters high over Piazza della Signoria, entering into the Palazzo Vecchio.[10] In 2011 festival organized a photo contest about honeymoons all over the world, in collaborations with the weekly magazine L'Espresso and the daily newspaper La Repubblica.[11] In 2018 the Festival del Viaggio conceived and realized the plan of the 'Passeggiata Jodorowski',[12] a walk at dawn amongst the most important Florentine monuments going always straight and never turning (inspired by Alejandro Jodorowski's idea). In September 2019 Viareggio was chosen as an additional seat.[13][14]
The 2020 edition was postponed to September and arranged with more open-air and on-line events.[15][16]
