Poggiardo White Night 2025

The fifth edition of the Poggiardo White Night was held on August 13, 2025, starting at 9:00 PM with free admission. The chosen theme, "Less Worries – Enjoy Life," invited everyone to leave behind daily worries and enjoy the night together.

The main attraction was the "White Sensation" aerial show by Stardust Show, presented for the first time in Southern Italy with acrobats, dancers, and performers in suspended choreography. The squares hosted live music: Piazza Umberto I with The Herta'n Roll, Tamurria, and Kalinka; Largo Santa Sofia with a jazz duo; Piazza Episcopo and Via Monte Grappa with reggae, dub, and rock bands, as well as the roaming Misto Band along the streets.

There was also a Salento craft market on Via di Mezzo, live painting by the Art High School, vintage car and motorcycle gatherings, sports exhibitions in Piazza Regina Margherita, and the mobile astronomical observatory at the municipal stadium. For the little ones, the kids' area on Corso Matteotti featured inflatables, soap bubbles, baby dance, and cotton candy.
