A few specifications
Diverdeinverde is a project curated by Fondazione Innovazione Urbana Rusconi Ghigi with the collaboration of Francesca Spiniello. The event is made possible thanks to the great willingness of the owners who agree to open their gardens, whom we would like to extend our thanks to, and to the invaluable support of the sponsors and institutions who grant their patronage along with the many associations and individual citizens who contribute to the organisational aspects of the events.
Diverdeinverde will take place regularly even in the event of inclement weather.
Not all gardens are open for the entire duration of the event and in some cases access will only be granted at specific times. Alongside the information provided in the programme, you will find a summary table on the website, allowing a quick overview of the openings for you to organise your visit in the best possible way. Before starting your visit, please double-check our website for any changes.
The entry card is personal and must be presented together with proof of identity. Children under the age of 13 are entitled to free admission. University students entitled to a reduced ticket must provide a valid university card. Most of the gardens are unfortunately not accessible by wheelchair.
No photos are allowed inside some of the gardens. Dogs are not allowed into the grounds. University students and volunteer ecological guards will be supervising access to the gardens and the correct behaviour of visitors. Guided tours and access to gardens no. 28, 29, 32, 34 and 35 must be booked in advance, starting 20 May at 9 a.m., online at www.diverdeinverde.it
