This summer, Al Segnavento farm in Zelarino, between Padua and Treviso, is organizing original open-air cinema nights hosted inside its equestrian field, among vintage deck chairs, popcorn and cold drinks, all in a country chic style.

The evening events at the Al Segnavento farm, such as aperitifs and open-air cinema, have now become an unmissable event for all lovers of style inspired by the bucolic English countryside, thanks to ever-changing set-ups made of strings of bulb lights, candles, deckchairs and vintage touches with the artistic direction of Giacomo Bucci.

Since 2005, Al Segnavento has been the kingdom of sustainability where the Bucci family has truly captured the best that nature can offer, characterized by green meadows where animals graze freely and elegant stables where American Quarter Horses are bred, selected for the saddle, a great passion of the owners.

The open-air cinema is an invitation to enjoy carefree summer nights, between good chatting, a memorable film and the quiet of nature all around.

And right in the suggestive equestrian field located in the center of the resort, the next open-air cinema events are held: on 25/07 with Vacanze Romane, on 08/08 with Letters to Juliet, on 22/08 with Mamma Mia and on 29/08 with Un’ottima Annata, with screenings starting at 9:30 pm.

Vintage deckchairs and director’s chairs await you, each with small support tables, and, at the entrance, a kit consisting of popcorns, drinks and sweets to better enjoy the film.

For a truly perfect country chic evening, before the screening, you can book dinner at Osteria Ai Brillanti, one of the two restaurants of the resort in addition to the fine dining Al Segnavento, overlooking the equestrian field.

Managed by Nicola Bucci, it offers a menu that respects the local rural tradition and enhances the territory following the seasons, such as the platters based on the delicious cold meat of their production, gnocchi with ragù or the tomato gazpacho, which Nicola will pair with excellent wines from small local companies that embrace the same philosophy as the farm.
