Mangiamare

The 2025 edition of Mangiamare was held at Largo Diomede, in Manfredonia, from September 5 to 7, under the slogan "Taste the sea, celebrate tradition." For three days, the square overlooking the harbor became the city's great sea festival, a blend of taste, music, culture, and community.

The heart of the event was the zero-mile seafood, brought directly to the square by the fishing boats Genoveffa Madre and Nuova Laura, a testament to the bond between the festival and the local maritime industry. Alongside the food stalls, the program featured live music, performances, workshops, and social and cultural initiatives, with activities also dedicated to families.

Promoted by the Arci Viceversa association, with the patronage of the Municipality of Manfredonia and the Puglia Region, the 2025 edition confirmed Mangiamare as one of the most cherished events of the local summer.

The 2025 edition was spread over three days, from September 5 to 7, at Largo Diomede:

• stalls with fresh catch brought to the square by the fishing boats Genoveffa Madre and Nuova Laura;
• traditional local seafood cuisine;
• live music and performances;
• workshops, tours, and social and cultural initiatives by Arci Viceversa.
