In its report published on 12 October, Quartu Sant’Elena council records 10,000 attendances at the fifth Esperienze e Suoni d’Acqua festival. Organised by the Baetorra association, it ran on 9–11 October in and around Molentargius-Saline Regional Nature Park. This is the council’s reported attendance figure, not necessarily a count of different individuals. [1]

The programme offered more than forty experiences involving nature, culture, sport and performance, including activities for children and opportunities to discover local practices and knowledge. Workshops, music and trails offered different ways to explore the area. Attendance alone does not measure any improvement in the park’s environmental health. [1]
