Frascati: event operators alarmed over delays to summer events tender

A group of exhibitors, organizers and seasonal workers who traditionally animate Frascati's historic center have published an open letter denouncing delays and uncertainty about the tender for summer events. The signatories say inquiries to municipal offices yielded only provisional answers and repeated postponements, preventing proper planning and investment.

• Tender delay: operators report more than a month and a half of waiting and continuous postponements.
• Festival cancelled: the tender for "Uno Sguardo nel Passato", a long-standing monthly event, was reportedly cancelled.
• Local impact: concerns over effects on commercial turnover, summer social life and the tradition of evening events in the town center.
• Demands: clarity on timing, respect for operators and assurance to work with dignity.

The letter, signed by Jolanda Selvaggi, Andrea Maccarone and Maura Contardi among others, calls for media attention and hopes for a response from the municipal administration to prevent the summer season from losing key cultural and economic events for the Frascati community.
