The Four Days of Naples, 2016 program
0: 00 / 0: 00

The complete program of celebrations and meetings for the Four Days of Naples until 5 October 2016.

This year marks the 73rd anniversary of the Four Days of Naples whose celebrations have begun the 28 September and will end the 5 October 2016.

This is a fundamental event in the history of our city since in 1943 the population rose up against the Nazi occupation which saw thousands of German soldiers along with their fascist allies. Thanks to the popular uprising, our city managed to free itself even before the arrival of the allied troops who, having reached this point, found a Naples already free, capable of giving a strong signal to the rest of Europe.

The celebrations and appointments were organized by the Municipality of Naples and by the Campano Institute for the Resistance. Below, the program with events until 5 October.
