LAV Benevento organised the Sagra della Lotta Antispecista at the Libreria Indipendente Masone in Benevento, an evening of discussion, readings and outreach dedicated to animal rights and anti-speciesism.

The event was scheduled for Sunday 4 October 2026, from 18:00 to 21:00, at Viale dei Rettori 73F. By 6 October local reporting described it as already held, presenting it as an opportunity for conversation with citizens and for welcoming new volunteers.

What the evening was about

According to local reports, the programme combined discussion and readings of texts on anti-speciesism and the relationship between humans, animals and the environment, alongside information for people interested in volunteering. The evening also included a vegan aperitif.

Topics addressed included animal rights, hunting, intensive and extensive farming, wildlife protection, cat colonies and LAV's work in the Benevento area.

Part of a national volunteer campaign

The Benevento meeting formed part of LAV's "Lotta per uno, lotta per tutti" campaign, which invites members of the public to become activists and volunteers.

That framing is consistent with LAV's stated principles. The organisation says it believes animals have rights to life, dignity and freedom, and describes speciesism as discrimination based on species.

If you want to get involved

For readers in Benevento and the Sannio area, the practical takeaway is straightforward: the Libreria Indipendente Masone, Viale dei Rettori 73F, served as the venue for this LAV outreach event, and volunteering was a central theme of the evening.

People interested in future local activity can follow LAV Benevento's announcements for similar meetings, volunteer information sessions and campaign initiatives. No verified attendance figure has been reported for the 4 October event, and local coverage describes its "successo" as a qualitative assessment rather than a quantified result.

The reports do not provide a complete verified list of all local activities beyond the topics and programme described, but for anyone curious about hunting, farming, wildlife, urban cat colonies or how animal-protection volunteering works locally, evenings of this kind are presented as an entry point for questions and direct contact with activists.
