About Capodanno al Centro del Mondo

Capodanno al Centro del Mondo is Foligno's big New Year's Eve celebration in Piazza della Repubblica. The name refers to the tradition that, since the Middle Ages, has indicated Foligno as the «centre of the world». From the evening of December 31st, the square transforms into an open-air stage with live music, bands, and DJs until the early hours, to welcome the new year together in the heart of Foligno's historic centre.

The «centre of the world» celebrates the new year

Capodanno al Centro del Mondo is the end-of-year party in Foligno, in the Province of Perugia, held in Piazza della Repubblica. The name plays on an ancient tradition: since the Middle Ages, Foligno has been jokingly referred to as the «centre of the world», an identity the city proudly claims and which gives its New Year's Eve party its title.

Music until midnight and beyond

The evening of December 31st transforms the square into a large open-air stage, with live music and DJs alternating until the early hours. The hosts, bands, and DJ sets accompany residents and visitors towards the midnight toast and beyond, in a spirit of collective celebration. Restaurants and venues of the InCentro consortium offer themed menus for the occasion.

A safe and organized city celebration

The event, promoted by the InCentro consortium with the Municipality of Foligno, is organized with controlled access and dedicated security measures, as well as a ban on fireworks and glass and metal containers during the party hours. A public New Year's Eve designed to be participatory and safe, in the heart of Foligno's historic centre.
