Festival del Parco del Conero – Serate Natura
The summer nights of the Conero Park between Sirolo and Numana
About Serate Natura del Conero
A festival to tell the story of Conero
The Festival del Parco del Conero is the summer event with which the Conero Park Authority brings citizens and tourists closer to the natural heritage of the most famous promontory in the Marche. The heart of the program is the Serate Natura (Nature Evenings), a series of five free appointments that liven up summer evenings between the Municipalities of Sirolo and Numana, in the Province of Ancona, with illustrated presentations and talks by local speakers and experts.
Serate Natura
The Serate Natura are dedicated to spreading awareness of the Park's beauties: landscapes, geology, the night sky, flora and fauna of the Adriatic coast, and the Mediterranean scrub that covers Monte Conero. The talks take place outdoors, in the squares and panoramic areas 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 Serate Natura, the Festival offers four evenings of outdoor cinema at the Teatro del Conero in Sirolo, the area in front of the Park Authority's headquarters on Via Peschiera, organized by the Municipality 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 forests, the Serate Natura 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 towards the landscape and the sky.
