Event Details

Boston International is pleased to present the fourth in our Chat with the Consulate series. The Italian Consulate has generously offered to host us for an evening of live music, Italian food, and wine on June 2nd at 6:30pm to commemorate the Festa della Repubblica Italiana with friends and family of the consulate. This event will be held at the Dante Alighieri Society in Cambridge and is invitation-only. We are fortunate to be able to offer a limited number of spots to our members, and this is sure to be a popular event so make sure you sign up soon as the tickets will likely sell out! As an extra incentive, the first Boston International members to register will receive a 25% discount by using the code: ITLY at checkout.


About the Festa Della Repubblica:
The Festa della Repubblica is celebrated on the second day of June, and it commemorates the institutional referendum of 1946 when (by universal suffrage) the Italian population was called to decide what form of government (monarchy or republic) to give to the country after World War II and the fall of Fascism. After 85 years of monarchy, with 12,717,923 votes for and 10,719,284 votes against, Italy became a Republic, and the monarchs of the House of Savoy were deposed and exiled. This is one of the most important Italian public holidays which, like July 14 in France and July 4 in the USA, celebrates the birth of the nation. A grand military parade is held in central Rome.


About the Chat with the Consulate Series
In addition to our intellectual speaker events, Boston International hosts events that are social and cultural in nature. Our Chat with the Consulate series allows Boston International members the opportunity to socialize and network, while also engaging with consuls in the Boston area on a range of exciting international topics.
