About Caldiero White Night

On the third Saturday of July, Caldiero, in the province of Verona, stays awake until dawn for its Midsummer White Night. From Piazza Marcolungo to the town center, and down to the historic Giunone Baths, the evening blends food and wine stalls, dancing, street artists, free games for children, and the unmissable midnight watermelon feast, concluding with a night swim in the pool to the rhythm of a DJ set. A popular and beloved summer festival, organized by Pro Loco Caldiero.

A Night That Never Ends

The Midsummer White Night is one of the most cherished summer events in Caldiero, a town in the Veronese lowlands famous for its ancient thermal waters. Organized by Pro Loco Caldiero with the Municipality and various local associations, it is traditionally held on the third Saturday of July and in 2025 reached its twentieth edition.

From the Center to the Giunone Baths

The festival enlivens Piazza Marcolungo and other spaces in the town: Pro Loco food and wine stalls, an area dedicated to children with free inflatable games, dancing on a steel floor, live music, and street artists performing until late at night. At midnight, the most anticipated moment arrives, the watermelon feast offered by Pro Loco. The grand finale is the night swim at the Giunone Baths, with a DJ set and open bar until the early hours of the morning.

A Festival for the Whole Community

Intergenerational and free in its main attractions, the White Night fills the streets of Caldiero with music, flavors, and fun. Over the years, it has become a classic of the Veronese summer, capable of attracting visitors even from neighboring towns in the province of Verona.
