About Portoverde Fest

Every summer Thursday evening, the picturesque Piazzale Colombo in Portoverde, a hamlet of Misano Adriatico, transforms into an open-air stage. Portoverde Fest - Summer Notes is the free music festival curated by the Vivaldi Music Center together with the Municipality of Misano Adriatico: a season of concerts ranging from rock and roll, Italian singer-songwriters, jazz, swing, and authorial sounds, featuring emerging and established artists. A regular event for those spending their summer evenings on the Romagna Riviera, between the tourist port and the sea.

A music festival at the Portoverde tourist port

Portoverde Fest - Summer Notes is the festival that enlivens the Thursday evenings of the summer season in Portoverde, the elegant hamlet of the Municipality of Misano Adriatico, in the Province of Rimini. The heart of the event is the picturesque Piazzale Colombo (Piazza Cristoforo Colombo), overlooking the tourist port: a scenic setting where live music accompanies evening strolls among the moored boats, the shops, and the scent of the Adriatic Sea.

Many genres, free entry

The festival is curated by the Vivaldi Music Center in collaboration with the Municipality of Misano Adriatico and offers a program that spans different genres, giving space to both local artists and musicians of national caliber. Over the years, the lineup has featured tributes to great Italian singer-songwriters, French chanson, Brazilian music, jazz, swing, reggae, and especially rock and roll, a true common thread of many evenings. The concerts are usually held at 9:30 PM and admission is free, making it a cultural offering open to families, tourists, and enthusiasts.

Portoverde, a pearl of the Riviera

Portoverde is a location built around its tourist port, one of the most characteristic destinations on the Romagna coast between Misano Adriatico and Cattolica. The festival is part of the rich summer program of the Municipality of Misano Adriatico, in Emilia-Romagna, which offers dozens of events every year including music, sports, and traditions throughout the summer season.

A summer of live music

Whether it's a modern reinterpretation of a De Andrรฉ tribute or an evening entirely dedicated to rock and roll, Portoverde Fest - Summer Notes offers a weekly opportunity to enjoy live music outdoors, in one of the most photographed spots on the Riviera. A simple and authentic way to spend Thursday evenings, between a concert and a stroll on the pier.
