About Ordine Zero

Ordine Zero is the summer festival that brings the historic center of Cupello, in the province of Chieti, to life with a blend of craft beer, street food, and live music. Established in 2016, the event turns Piazza Garibaldi into a vibrant, free-entry festival space featuring brewery stalls, street food vendors, and concerts by nationally acclaimed artists. Over the years, the stage has hosted stars like Max Gazzè, Edoardo Bennato, and Lo Stato Sociale, with rising talent Sarah Toscano headlining the 2025 edition. It is an event designed for everyone, complete with a dedicated area for children.

Ordine Zero, the summer festival of Cupello

Ordine Zero is the most anticipated summer event in Cupello, a small town in the Vasto area of the Chieti province, in the heart of Abruzzo. Since its inception in 2016, the festival has secured a prominent spot in the local summer calendar, drawing visitors from across the Vasto and San Salvo regions with a simple yet winning formula: craft beer, street food, and live music.

Piazza Garibaldi transformed

The beating heart of the event is Piazza Garibaldi, located in the town's historic center, which fills with stalls, lights, and stages for the occasion. Starting in the evening, breweries showcase their craft creations, while street food stands offer a range of delicacies, from local specialties to contemporary flavors. The atmosphere is that of a grand popular celebration, where tasting is paired with conviviality and the anticipation of the evening's main concert.

Nationally acclaimed music

What has made Ordine Zero a recognized event far beyond the municipal borders is the quality of its musical lineup. Over the years, the festival has brought nationally renowned artists to Cupello, such as Max Gazzè, Edoardo Bennato, and Lo Stato Sociale. The 2025 edition featured Sarah Toscano, winner of Amici 2024 and a participant in the 2025 Sanremo Festival, highlighting the organizers' commitment to emerging names in the Italian pop scene.

An event for everyone

Ordine Zero is a family-friendly event with free admission and a dedicated children's area, ensuring a great evening for all ages. The combination of quality beer, street food, and free concerts has turned the festival into a vital gathering point for the Cupello community and the many visitors who flock to the square every summer.

A local project

The event is powered by a committee of volunteers, supported by the Cupello municipal administration. This local roots-based approach gives the event its authentic character: Ordine Zero is not just a concert series, but a project that celebrates the historic center, social connection, and the culture of craft beer in a corner of Abruzzo often tucked away from the major tourist circuits.

Ordine Zero — edition 2026

The 2026 edition of Ordine Zero is expected to take place in Cupello during the summer, following the festival's tradition. As of today, the official dates and program for the 2026 edition have not yet been announced: the organizers have confirmed their intention to hold the event again, while postponing the release of further details. As in previous years, the event is expected to feature the classic formula of craft beer, street food, and live music in Piazza Garibaldi.

The Ordine Zero festival is expected to return in the summer of 2026 in Cupello, in the province of Chieti. At the moment, however, the dates and program for the 2026 edition have not yet been announced: the Cupello summer calendar lists the event among the scheduled activities, but the specific dates are yet to be confirmed. As soon as the organizers release official information regarding the schedule, musical guests, and setup, this page will be updated. As per tradition, we look forward to the usual formula of craft beer, street food, and free concerts in Piazza Garibaldi.
