About Conero Nature Evenings

Every summer, the Conero Park opens its squares to the starry sky with Nature Evenings: a series of free talks, illustrated by speakers and experts, dedicated to the beauty, flora, and fauna of one of the most evocative stretches of the Marche coastline. Between Sirolo and Numana, outdoors and with the sea as a backdrop, it's the sweetest way to discover the Conero. Completing the program are outdoor cinema screenings at the Conero Theatre.

A festival to tell the story of the Conero

The Conero Park Festival is the summer event series with which the Conero Park Authority brings citizens and tourists closer to the natural heritage of the most famous promontory in the Marche region. The heart of the program is the Nature Evenings, a series of five free events that liven up summer evenings between the Municipalities of Sirolo and Numana, in the Province of Ancona, with illustrated presentations and talks by local experts.

Nature Evenings

The Nature Evenings are dedicated to showcasing the beauties of the Park: landscapes, geology, the night sky, flora and fauna of the Adriatic coast, and the Mediterranean scrub that covers Monte Conero. The meetings take place outdoors, in the squares and panoramic spaces of the two seaside villages, usually starting at 9:30 PM, with free admission. It's an informal opportunity suitable for everyone to get to know the protected area up close, often with the contribution of nature photographers and local associations.

Cinema under the stars and other events

Alongside the Nature Evenings, the Festival offers four evenings of outdoor cinema at the Conero Theatre in Sirolo, the space in front of the Park Authority's headquarters on Via Peschiera, organized by the Municipal Administration of Sirolo between July and August. In various editions, the program has also been enriched with concerts, photographic exhibitions, and events dedicated to stargazing, confirming the festival's vocation to combine nature, culture, and live entertainment.

Why it's worth it

In a regional park that protects cliffs overlooking the Adriatic Sea, beaches reachable only by sea, and holm oak woods, the Nature Evenings are the most pleasant way to understand what makes the Conero special. Between Sirolo and Numana, two of the most beautiful villages on the Conero Riviera, the Marche summer is experienced with a gaze turned to the landscape and the sky.

Conero Nature Evenings — edition 2026

The summer festival of the Conero Park returns with five free Nature Evenings, from Sunday, July 5 to Sunday, August 30, 2026. The events, dedicated to showcasing the Park's beauties, take place between Numana and Sirolo starting at 9:30 PM, with distinguished speakers. Also scheduled are four outdoor cinema screenings at the Conero Theatre, organized by the Municipality of Sirolo.
