On the last Sunday of July, stalls on the seafront and fireworks over the sea
The Pegli Sea Fair is a regular fixture of the summer in the western part of Genoa. Pegli, an elegant seaside delegation, celebrates its traditional fair every last Sunday of July along the picturesque seafront, from the Peragallo Gardens up to Via Mulinetti.
For the occasion, the seafront transforms into a long open-air market with about 85 stalls selling sweets, various goods, and traditional products. The fair is open from the early morning hours until late evening, offering visitors a full day of strolls, shopping, and a festive atmosphere with a sea view.
The most anticipated moment is the final fireworks display, which lights up the sky over the Pegli sea around 11:15 PM. The fireworks, accompanied by sound effects, provide a spectacular finale to a day of celebration, with the crowd gathered along the promenade watching the show reflected on the water.
Organized by the Municipality of Genoa, the Pegli Sea Fair renews an event deeply rooted in the neighborhood's tradition each year. It's an opportunity to experience the seafront in a festive way and to discover one of the most characteristic locations on the Genoese coast.
The 2026 edition of the Pegli Sea Fair is held on Sunday, July 26, faithful to the tradition of the last Sunday of the month. From 8 AM to 11:30 PM, about 85 stalls selling sweets and various goods animate the seafront of Pegli, in Genoa, from the Peragallo Gardens up to Via Mulinetti.
The day concludes with the fireworks display over the sea, the most anticipated moment of the festival, around 11:15 PM.
Pegli is reachable by train (Genova Pegli station) and by AMT buses from the center of Genoa. The seafront and the Peragallo Gardens are located in the heart of the district.
