Lugano NFT Fest, TECH Fest, and WUF: 14

PRESS RELEASE

This year Lugano triples the offer of festivals linked to new technologies. After the experiences of past years, the time had come to provide some vertical content for the different communities and the different interests linked to the world of digital avant-garde.

On 14 and 15 June 2024 in Lugano there will be:

NFT fest: dedicated to Web3 communities, and to fans of NFTs in all its multifaceted forms;

TECH fest: focused on the world of start-ups, investors and the latest technological innovations;

WUF: acronym for “We Understand the Future”, a vertical format on new art forms linked to the latest technologies.

All of which forms the Lugano Digital Weekend, which will spread across the entire city and the Canton Ticino.

Thanks to the collaboration between FFS and Lugano Living Lab (the city’s digital laboratory), entry tickets to events will also be valid as transport tickets on public transport within the entire Arcobaleno fare community for the duration of their validity. Tickets can be booked at www.nft-fest.com. Participants will thus have the opportunity to easily reach Lugano from all over Ticino using the public transport network for FREE.

The epicenter of the various festivals will be the town hall and its Piazza della Riforma (main city square). Inside the courtyard of the municipal building there will be keynotes and podcasts from industry representatives and major influencers. And like last year, it will also be an opportunity to discuss and “clash” on the various sensitive and important, and sometimes divisive, topics that concern technological innovation.

Above all, there will be space for innovations and the city will anticipate some strategic activities undertaken to facilitate the re-location of technological start-ups in the area.

Dozens of side-events in those days, in a city that stands out for its vibrant activity in the month of June. At the gates of summer, on the lake, with a Mediterranean climate, schools just finished and lots of people around the city.
