June 11th-12th | URBAN GIANTS FESTIVAL 2022

The graffiti festival supported by BLS is back. After a two-year stop, Milan is once again the backdrop for Urban Giants, Italy's most important graffiti event.

On 11 and 12 June, the City of Trezzano sul Naviglio will host the international kermesse, bringing together 100 writers and street artists from 20 countries around the world in the new location between the Centro Ugo Tognazzi in Via Castoldi and the perimeter walls of the renowned Vetropack glassworks in Via San Cristoforo.

The 2022 edition

This year the We Run The Streets association will work in synergy with the Grupifh association (GRUppo di Promozione Iniziative a Favore dei Portatori di Handicap).
The 'Urban Giants' event will be integrated with the 'Birreficenza' event, which is a fundraising tool for activities in favour of the frail.

BLS supports young artists by providing them with the best respiratory protective equipment for the festival days. Our support makes us proud and allows us to contribute to this enterprising cultural renaissance and urban regeneration project.

____________

Urban Giants was born in 2018 from the path and experience of the cultural association We Run the Street which, after organising 4 consecutive editions of the famous international Festival Meeting of Styles in Milan, decided to embark on an individual path with its own event. The event wants and must be a meeting between people of different cultures and ethnicities, as well as styles, in 3 days of drawing, dancing, singing and sports in an urban context where the meeting between different nations leads to a real explosion of creativity combined with the curiosity and participation of the local and neighbouring population as well as visitors from the rest of Italy.
