Cartoline Sonore is a leading cultural festival in Sardegna’s summer programme.
Through a carefully curated programme ranging from concerts to supporting activities, the festival invites the public to engage in active and mindful listening, bringing events dedicated to the fusion of music, landscape and nature to Castelsardo and Viddalba.
Each event becomes a story: a sensory postcard. In a world dominated by speed, this cultural festival offers a much-needed respite, an emotional journey where every note remains etched in the memory like a precious memento sent from a faraway place.
Every note becomes a memory. Every place leaves a trace to take with you.
