The 5th edition of the Vinovo Accordion will take place on May 22–23, 2026 at Cascina Don Gerardo in Vinovo, near Turin, Italy. Dedicated to the expressive world of the accordion and the “breath of the bellows,” the festival promises two full days of music, culture, and live performances celebrating both traditional and contemporary accordion artistry.

The National Review of Diatonic Accordion and Accordion Music will open on Friday, 22 March at 9:30 PM with a special concert by FramMenti Salentine.

On Saturday, 23 March at 11:30 AM, Genuino Baffetti will lead the workshop “L’Organetto tra tradizione e innovazione” (“The Diatonic Accordion between Tradition and Innovation”), offering an insight into the instrument’s rich heritage and modern evolution. The workshop is presented by Baffetti Accordions, a family-run company whose accordion craftsmanship began in 1977 and has been carried forward for nearly fifty years with passion, tradition, and innovation.

Visitors will enjoy a vibrant program featuring concerts, solo performances, exhibitions, artist meetings, and moments dedicated to the rich heritage of popular and folk music. The festival continues to grow as an important gathering point for accordion enthusiasts, musicians, and audiences from across Italy and beyond.
