Candles Under the Stars

The 11th edition of Candles Under the Stars, on August 10, 2025, confirmed the event's great appeal: over eight thousand flames and twenty quintals of wax illuminated the coastline of Pesaro, Gabicce Mare, and Gradara. At Piazzale della Libertà, the luminous inscription "Visit Pesaro", made of a thousand candles, and two hundred floating lights around the Sfera by Arnaldo Pomodoro. The evening featured itinerant pizzica by Asd La Musica dell'Anima and a concert by the Mirko Casadei Big Band, as well as the "Sottomonte Beach Party" on the free beach. The event, organized by the three municipalities with the Pro Loco of Candelara and local volunteers, created an atmosphere of community and shared beauty.
