festa della repubblica

Celebrate Italy's National Holiday

FESTA DELLA REPUBBLICA - SUNDAY, JUNE 4, 2023


A Message from Prime minister Justin trudeau


What is festa della repubblica? Vice President Cinzia Zotta Wendland

La nascita della Repubblica Italiana si festeggia ogni anno il 2 giugno. È una festa nazionale unica e importante perché commemora l'inizio di un nuovo stato - una nuova repubblica. Nel questo giorno ricorre l'anniversario della proclamazione della Repubblica Italiana. Si ricordano la trasformazione dell'Italia dalla monarchia in una repubblica parlamentare quindi l’attuale forma di governo del nostro Paese. Il 1946 è anno nel quale l'Italia divenne una repubblica.
​
Domenica, il 4 giugno, in occasione del 77° anniversario della Festa della Repubblica, viene celebrare la Festa Della Repubblica al Kelowna Canadian Italian Club. 
Vi aspettiamo!

June 2 marks a very special day for Italians; a day known as Festa della Repubblica. This annual celebration in Italy is a national holiday that dates back to 1946, when the entire Italian population voted for the very first time in a referendum that caused the shift of government in Italy from a monarchy to a republic. It was a momentous day in history signifying the rebirth of a nation and the freedom, liberty and unity that are so dear to its citizens.  
Festa della Repubblica is typically celebrated with grand military parades in Rome and a spectacular aerial display of the three colours of the Italian flag by the Italian military. The colours of red, green and white in the Italian flag itself are strongly evocative of the nation's natural beauty and history, with the green colour representing its plains and hills, the white representing the iconic Alps, and the red symbolic of the blood spilled in Italy's fight for Independence. 
In honour of Italy’s National Holiday, the Kelowna Canadian Italian Club will celebrate the 77th anniversary of the Festa della Repubblica on Sunday, June 4th. Opening ceremonies and celebratory cake will kick off the event, followed by an indoor cultural experience showcasing select regions of Italy which will tantalize your senses. We look forward to seeing you all there for this special event.
A presto!
