Vitae Fest in Rome: music and art to inspire young people

After its successful edition in Mexico, the Festival of Life brought together, this time in Rome, thousands of young people in a free music and art meeting, with the purpose of “spreading messages of peace, hope and reconciliation and inspiring real changes” in different capitals of the world.

The event, organized by the Vitae Global Foundationwas held on Saturday, October 25 at Parco Schuster, in the city of Rome. For more than four hours, artists and the public shared under the motto “Don’t burn bridges, become one.”

According to information shared with ACI Prensa, Luis Quinelli, president of the foundation, explained that the Festival of Life “It is much more than a concert”, it is a space that seeks to promote “reconciliation: with oneself, with others and with God.”

The festival featured renowned Italian artists such as Benji & Fede, Settembre, AKA 7even, as well as emerging talents such as Lowrah and Mimi.

For Quinelli, we currently live in a “polarized and fragmented world,” and that is why he explained that “deep down, the crisis we are going through globally is spiritual, and Vitae is a response to it,” especially within the framework of the celebrations of the Jubilee Year of Hope.

The Vitae Global Foundationcreated in 2012, is an international nonprofit organization supported by world-renowned leaders, artists and executives. Its mission is to promote, through art and culture, messages that inspire reconciliation and hope.

According to the organizers, this festival was “promoted and dreamed of in a special way by Pope Francis.” In May of this year, the Festival of Life was presented on the esplanade of the Zócalo in Mexico City, where, according to information from the organizers shared with ACI Prensa, around 55,000 people attended the event, which featured the participation of prominent local artists.

For next year, the organizers shared with ACI Prensa that it will be held in Washington and Los Angeles, both cities in the United States.
