The first edition of Street Culture, a free-entry festival dedicated to street culture, has unfortunately been postponed due to the bad weather forecast for the city of Milan this weekend.

Street Culture will give all participants the opportunity to learn about and deepen their knowledge of the social and cultural values ​​of street art within the splendid setting of the city of Milan, one of the Italian cities of reference for this reality. The public will be won over by a long list of street artists – buskers, writers, jugglers, dancers, performers, storytellers and much more – who will make themselves known with their art and special workshops where they will illustrate all the facets of their world.
