Cervia Summer Festival

The festival of the Cervia summer

The Cervia Summer Festival is one of the most anticipated musical events of the summer on the Romagna Riviera. Every July, the central Piazza Garibaldi, in the heart of Cervia (Province of Ravenna, Emilia-Romagna), transforms into a large open-air stage hosting concerts, shows, and author evenings. The festival is organized by Pulp Concerti with the promotion of the Municipality of Cervia, and in recent years it has established itself as one of the most important showcases of the Cervia summer season.

A lineup between music and words

The Cervia Summer Festival program skillfully blends the big names of Italian music, voices from the international scene, and events of civic theatre and spoken word. Over the years, the square has hosted beloved singer-songwriters, pop interpreters, authors of songs, and protagonists of live performance, in a calendar that manages to speak to a broad, intergenerational audience.

The concerts take place in Piazza Garibaldi, with the charm of an outdoor audience set up just a stone's throw from the sea and the historic center of Cervia. This is the formula that has seen the festival grow edition after edition, capable of attracting tens of thousands of spectators over a few evenings.

Cervia, city of salt and sea

The festival is part of Cervia's rich summer offering. The city is known for its beaches, its ancient salt pans, and its tradition of sweet salt. Attending a concert in Piazza Garibaldi also means experiencing the city center during one of its most vibrant seasons, with its bars, seafront strolls, and the typical atmosphere of Romagna in the summer.

Tickets and access

The Cervia Summer Festival shows are ticketed until available seats are sold out. Tickets can be purchased online through the main pre-sale circuits, particularly on TicketOne. As this is a highly popular festival, some evenings sell out well in advance: it is advisable to purchase tickets early.
