Brescia app: Live the city in freedom, from your smartphone

BRESCIAPP!
Bresciapp! is the app that includes all the information necessary to fully experience the city of Brescia, perfect both for residents and tourists.

With its simple and intuitive graphics, Bresciapp! has five main sections that are divided in turn into subsections, to offer you a wide range of options suitable for any situation.

The “CITY” section is an essential tool for exploring the tourist, cultural, commercial and recreational aspects of Brescia, allowing you to view all the points of interest: from shops to museums, theatres and monuments. Each place is accompanied by a detailed info sheet with photos, information, schedules and contacts.

The app also has a “LINES” section so you can quickly and simply view the timetables of all the subway and bus lines.

There is also a “MAP” where you can geolocalise yourself to easily and intuitively plan your itinerary. In fact, those who don’t know Brescia or have never used its transport services can display all bus and subway stops or find a specific stop and see all the timetables of the lines that go there. Alternatively, entering a place of departure and destination it is possible to calculate a complete itinerary. The map also includes Bicimia stations, Automia stations, car parks and parking spaces for the disabled, LTZ areas, shops and areas of cultural interest.

If you’re in a hurry and unable to stop in a tobacco shop to buy a ticket, in the “BUY NOW” section you can get zone 1 tickets, zone 1+2 tickets, full-day zone 1 tickets and full-day zone 1+2 tickets.

Finally, the “NEWS” section is divided into categories to make it easier to find the articles that interest you most.

Bresciapp! is a joint project of the City of Brescia, the Brescia Centro Consortium, the Brescia Mobilità Group and the participation of the Lombardy Region, which financed the development of the application as part of the BRESCIA CRESCE initiative.

The app can be downloaded for free from Google Play and the Apple Store

Brescia Bergamo – Culture capitals of Italy 2023: Opening Events

WHEN
from 20/01/2023 to 22/01/2023

WHERE
Brescia – City Centre, Brescia, 25121


FRIDAY JANUARY 20

The inaugural ceremony of the Year of Culture of Bergamo and Brescia will be held simultaneously at the Teatro Donizetti in Bergamo and at the Teatro Grande in Brescia, connected to each other. It will be a single ceremony with two stages broadcasted live on television.

SATURDAY JANUARY 21

Thousands of people will pour into the squares and streets of Bergamo and Brescia to attend a variety of art and entertainment events that will transform the two city centers into widespread and open-air stages.

In the morning and in the first part of the afternoon the program will be the same in the two cities. At 11, thousands of primary school children will sing a hymn written by authors from Bergamo and Brescia, dedicated to Bergamo Brescia, the Italian capital of Culture. The anthem of the Capital will be performed simultaneously in Piazza della Loggia in Brescia and in Piazza Vittorio Veneto in Bergamo.

In the afternoon, from 4 pm, the event will move to the historic center for the great Parade of 4 parades. Four processions characterized by the colors of the Bergamo Brescia logo – each made up of thousands of people – will parade from 4 cardinal points of the two cities to converge, respectively, towards Piazza della Loggia, in Brescia, and Piazza Vittorio Veneto, in Bergamo. The popular processions will also be accompanied by dancers and musical bands and will end, once gathered in the two squares, with the execution by the musicians of the Italian anthem.

Subsequently, the two events will diverge, in a specific way for each city.

In Brescia, celebrations in the square

Under the banner of community and the collectivity, the second part of the day in Brescia will be a “choral” and public event, in every sense.

From 17.30 to 19 in Piazza della Loggia there will be a Gala-Concert with the participation of some of the main artists of the Brescia music scene. Hosted by Ambra Angiolini, Brescian by adoption, the event will take place on a large stage scenically integrated into the “Loggia” overlooking the square. Important Brescian artists such as Francesco Renga, Fausto Leali, Frah Quintale, ComaCose, Mr. Rain and others to be defined will perform. There will also be other illustrious citizens of Brescia, personalities from the world of entertainment and culture.

In the evening, starting at 20, the party will continue in Piazza Vittoria, transformed into a monumental installation of images, lights and music with a multimedia aquarium theme and crowned by a show of aerial dances, fireworks and widespread video projections . The installation will also be viewable on Sunday 22 January.

For the whole day Bergamo and Brescia will open the doors of all places of culture. Exceptionally theatres, museums, cinemas, libraries, foundations and many other entities will be open to the public and will host exhibitions, conferences and exhibitions. A moment of widespread and pervasive culture that will officially inaugurate the year of the Italian Capital of Culture 2023.
