The 2025 edition of the Notte del Saltarello was held on Tuesday, August 12, 2025, at the Abbey of Santa Maria di Ronzano, in Castel Castagna, in the province of Teramo. The day began in the late afternoon with puppet-making workshops, folk dance classes (pizzica, saltarella of the Vomano Valley, spallata of Schiavi d'Abruzzo, and quadriglia), and performances by folk groups, including the "Laccio d'Amore" group from Penna Sant'Andrea.

In the evening, the major free concert featured Giusy Ferreri and Clementino on stage, accompanied by the Orchestra Popolare del Saltarello, hosted by journalist Federica Peluffo with entertainment by performer Dadà. Free admission, the shuttle service running until late at night, guided tours of the abbey, and the food area with street food and traditional Abruzzese cuisine were all confirmed.
