The white night of July between music, watermelon feast and swimming at the Giunone Baths
The Notte Bianca di Mezza Estate is one of the most cherished summer events in Caldiero, a town in the Bassa Veronese region famous for its ancient thermal waters. Organised 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.
The festival enlivens Piazza Marcolungo and other town spaces: food and wine stalls by Pro Loco, 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.
Intergenerational and free in its main attractions, the Notte Bianca fills the streets of Caldiero with music, flavours, and fun. Over the years, it has become a classic of the Veronese summer, capable of attracting visitors from neighbouring towns in the province of Verona.
Confirming a tradition that reached its twentieth edition in 2025, the Notte Bianca di Mezza Estate will return to Caldiero on the third Saturday of July 2026. Pro Loco Caldiero will liven up Piazza Marcolungo and the town centre with food and wine stalls, dancing on the floor, street artists, and the children's area, concluding with the midnight watermelon feast and the night swim at the Giunone Baths.
