The Piccolo Festival dell’Animazione returns from 14 to 22 November 2026 across San Vito al Tagliamento, Udine, Pordenone and Staranzano for its 19th edition. Organized by Associazione Viva Comix under the artistic direction of Paola Bristot, the festival presents 100 films across six sections, dedicated to animation and illustration for audiences of all ages.
Among the highlights is the Italian premiere of “A Nicely Built City (Never Resists Destruction)” by William Kentridge, one of the most influential contemporary artists on the international scene. The festival will also feature meetings, masterclasses and workshops with directors, artists and animation professionals.
The programme is further enriched by a focus on international animated cinema, the youth-oriented sections AnimaKids and AnimaYoung, performances, DJ sets and the exhibition “Dear Pinocchio”, hosted at the PFA HUB in San Vito al Tagliamento and celebrating the 200th anniversary of the birth of Carlo Collodi.
