Draft:Radio Dublino

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Radio Dublino is an independent, non-commercial, on-air and online radio show in Ireland run by volunteers that serves Dublin's Italian community. Established in 2013 by Maurizio Pittau as Ireland's first Italian-language radio show, it produces programming both in English and Italian. The program, based in Dublin, caters to Dublin's Italian community and those interested in Italian culture, featuring Italian and Irish music, interviews with Italians living in Dublin or Irish speakers of Italian, news from Italy and Ireland, and updates on intercultural events in Dublin. Its goal is to enhance the integration of Italians in Dublin and foster dialogue between Italians and Irish.[1] Maurizio Pittau is being awarded “Language Ambassador of the Year 2015” by the EU.[2]

Since 2017, Radio Dublino has organised the Italian Fusion Festival. The festival aims to promote cultural exchanges between Italy and Ireland through several bands based in Ireland whose music results from the collaboration between Irish and Italian musicians. [3] It also includes a short video competition[4], poetry reading, art exhibitions, vintage Vespa exhibition, workshops and Italian food/drinks.[5]
