Immersive exhibition “L’Amore in Persona” – Meeting di Rimini 2026

Six days at the Meeting di Rimini

From 21 to 26 August 2026 we brought L’Amore in Persona to the Villaggio Ragazzi, the children’s area of the Meeting di Rimini: the immersive exhibition born out of our Advent Calendar – 25 Words of Christmas. Six wonderful days, with so many people coming to see us and to step into the experience.

Nausicaa Dalla Torre’s illustrations came out of the pages of the concertina book and lit up three walls — twenty metres of projection that wrap around everyone who walks in. From the darkness of Creation through to Saint Francis, the 189 characters of the Calendar set off towards Bethlehem, each one with a story of their own. Not a video to watch, but a room to walk into. And on the way out, one question only: and you, what moves you? The sky of the exhibition filled up with paper stars, one for every answer.

The Advent Calendar that started it all is available: a concertina nativity scene 180 cm long, 25 stories and 50 little stars, one to stick on every day until Christmas.

AND THE EXHIBITION IS NOT OVER — Rimini was not the finish line. L’Amore in Persona carries on as a touring format: it adapts to a parish hall, a school entrance hall, a civic or museum space. You provide the venue and the people, we guide you through the set-up. The exhibition is currently available in Italian only, with multilingual versions coming soon.
