The FEST 2013 Conference contained a full programme of talks, discussions, presentations and workshops. Following suggestions by FEST Members, the programme focused on:
Storytelling and Performance  exploring opportunities for performance training and skills development
Storytelling In A Time of Crisis  funding and marketing storytelling in the current economic climate
Applied Storytelling  Presentations and examples of work involving storytelling in a social context.

In addition, our host organisation Raccontamiunastoria have prepared a cultural feast, including: A storywalk through the historic Appian Park, a guided tour of the famous catacombs, a visit to a medieval mountain-top town outside Rome to enjoy traditional food from the countryside, and an evening barbeque in the gardens of a nearby Friary.
