Marea Fest – The Easter of the Gargano

Marea Fest: A different kind of Easter in the Gargano

Marea Fest – The Easter of the Gargano was launched in 2026 as a fresh way to experience Easter Sunday, transforming the Rodi Garganico Tourist Port into an open-air stage overlooking the Adriatic. The initiative, promoted by Viva Yachtclub in collaboration with Vibes Gargano, brings together music, fine dining, and entertainment in a single day designed for families, young people, and visitors of all ages.

Two musical stages until late

The heart of the event is the music: from the afternoon until late at night, two musical stages alternate with live performances and DJ sets to keep the festive atmosphere of the port alive. The organizers' concept focuses on a dynamic and engaging rhythm, turning the quay into a dance floor under the spring sky of the Gargano.

Spaces for everyone, from kids to relaxation

Marea Fest is designed as an inclusive event. Alongside the stages, there is a Kids' Area with entertainment, mascots, and games for the little ones, as well as Relax & Vibes zones where you can sit back and enjoy the panoramic view of the marina and the sea. It is the perfect opportunity for an open-air Easter, balancing fun and tranquility, ideal for those traveling with children.

The flavors of the Gargano

The culinary offerings highlight local excellence with two menus designed for Easter lunch: a fish menu, featuring the local catch reinterpreted with a contemporary twist, and a meat menu, celebrating the authentic flavors of the Gargano hinterland. It is a cuisine that tells the story of this corner of Puglia, between the coast and the hills.

Rodi Garganico and the Gargano

The Municipality of Rodi Garganico, in the province of Foggia, is one of the most charming villages on the northern coast of the Gargano, famous for its beaches, citrus groves, and a historic center overlooking the sea. Hosting an event like Marea Fest on Easter Day means kicking off the local tourist season in an original way, offering residents and visitors a joyful and convivial alternative to the traditional Sunday holiday. "Marea Fest was born with the idea of celebrating Easter Sunday in a different way, combining music, local territory, and fun," explains Giancarlo Vigilante of Viva Yachtclub.

Free admission

Participation in the event is free of charge, while the culinary offerings are available for purchase according to the Viva Yachtclub menus. It is a great opportunity to discover Rodi Garganico and its port during a day of celebration, music, and Gargano flavors.
