The 21st edition of LA NOTTE ROSA returns to set the beaches and towns of Romagna ablaze with a totally new look.
The event, which will be held from 19th to 21st June, coinciding with the summer solstice, will truly kick off the summer tourist season in Romagna, in an explosion of joy and vitality.
The claim of this edition best expresses the new spirit of the event: HIT’S SUMMER, the beat of summer, the sound of music, the rhythm of celebration.
It will be a long weekend that will embrace the brightest days of the year under the banner of fun: from wellness and sports dance to concerts at dawn and festivals for children and families, from pop music to jazz, from folk to indie, passing through food and wine and local excellence.
Once again this year the event will extend over the 110 km of the Riviera, taking in the villages, towns and castles of the Romagna hinterland amidst national and international music, artistic installations, fireworks and magical scenery.
La Notte Rosa 2026 in Ravenna includes a programme of events on the beaches of Ravenna.
Full programme to be defined.
