Weekly Cultural Programme
Every Wednesday at 18.00 from September to June there is a lecture, concert or other event in the Sala Ferragamo in the Harold Acton Library followed by an informal drinks reception.
The British Institute of Florence receives no Government funding and welcomes donations, however small, to support our Library and Cultural Programme.
Please come early to secure a seat and avoid disappointment.
Talking Pictures
Each season takes a specific theme or personality from the world of cinema. The format is a brief spoken introduction based on a prepared handout, the screening of the film, and an informal follow-up discussion. Screenings are usually in English.
Reading Exchange
The reading exchange meets three times a year and gives you the opportunity to talk about a book you have enjoyed and listen to the choices of others. It is open to all.
Other Events at the British Institute
We organise other events throughout the year including Shakespeare week in April, Bloomsday in June and conferences, exhibitions, seminars and concerts.
Events in Florence
There is never any shortage of things to do or see in Florence.
