As you can see, besides the allnighters and the concerts a host of different activities are scheduled for what we call the social programme of the All Saints weekender.

The History of Lavarone 1915 -1918 By Wolfgang Dirrigl The idea of an historical talk on Lavarone during the First World War came to Wolfgang time ago, reflecting on Malcolm X remarks in 1964 on the importance of knowing history in order to "understand the present and be better prepared for the future". "Lavarone is famous in the scene for a big mod weekend that attracts people from all over Europe – says Wolfgang – but very few of the attendees know that during the First World War this place was a big bloody battlefield. Lots of great-great grandfathers and great-grandfathers of people coming for the weekender and party fought against each other at that time. Now we can share good moments and have fun all together in the same place that was theatre of great battles less than 100 years ago. That is a very nice thing. So I thought it was interesting to talk and discuss about that". Wolfgang’s talk is scheduled on Saturday 29 October at the Triangolo before the concert of Blues Flames.
