Edition 2025 — Cogoleto in the Time of Columbus

In 2025, Cogoleto re-enacted the feat of Christopher Columbus with costumed processions, flag-wavers, and Renaissance dances in the historic center and along the seafront. The event renewed the town's connection with the navigator whose birthplace it claims.

The 2025 edition of Cogoleto in the Time of Columbus confirmed the re-enactment dedicated to the famous fellow citizen. Through the streets of the center and along the sea, costumed figures, flag-wavers, and dance groups brought the atmosphere of the 15th century and the era of great discoveries back to life, in an event that enhances the historical identity of Cogoleto, on the Genoese Riviera di Ponente.
