Today in Gardone Riviera, the “Aramis Day” is being celebrated, an event dedicated to the blue monk parakeet, which has become a true social media sensation. The event, which has drawn both residents and tourists to the lakeside promenade d’Annunzio, was organized through the collaboration between the local administration and local businesses. Throughout the morning, the promenade was lively with stalls offering themed gadgets, sweets, and local products.
The day’s program includes activities primarily designed for younger audiences, culminating in the late afternoon with an outdoor screening of the animated film “Kung Fu Panda 4.” Aramis will be present for photos and selfies with his fans, while guests can enjoy roasted chestnuts and other local specialties. This event highlights the importance of the parakeet as a tourist attraction for the community of Gardone Riviera.
