2021 saw the successful launch of the "Canazei Campo Base" festival, conceived and hosted by journalist Elisa Salvi and sponsored by the Municipality of Canazei. This is a series of meetings, held from June to August, which offer an opportunity to learn about, explore and discuss various topics related to the mountains and their future, from the most traditional, such as mountaineering, to the most innovative, such as emerging sports, different ways of living in an environment where nature is a fascinating companion, climate change, tourism resources and strategies, and sustainability to be developed in the years to come. Among the distinguished guests of previous editions of "Canazei Campo Base" are Reinhold Messner, Simone Moro, Mia Canestrini, Giovanni Grasso, Luca Mercalli, Vittorio Sgarbi, Mario Tozzi, Mauro Corona and Massimiliano Ossini.
