Premio Faraglioni Capri International

A symbol of Italian cultural excellence

The Premio Faraglioni Capri International stands as one of the most enduring and prestigious cultural events on the national scene. Founded in 1994 within the setting of the Teatro Quisisana, the award has established itself over the years as a cornerstone of the Capri summer, bringing together the greatest names in cinema, theater, music, and art on the island. Its mission is to foster dialogue between culture and the local territory, enhancing the artistic identity of Capri and helping to showcase it to the world.

The 31st edition: a tribute to Toni Servillo

On Sunday, August 30, 2026, the Premio Faraglioni Capri International celebrates its 31st edition by bestowing its prestigious award upon Toni Servillo, one of Italy's most authoritative performers. His career, spanning both theater and cinema, has made him a true ambassador of Italian culture globally. The gala evening will be hosted by Rai journalist Eleonora Daniele. The initiative is supported by the patronage and collaboration of the City of Capri.

The Cloister of the Certosa di San Giacomo

The evening takes place in the evocative Great Cloister of the Certosa di San Giacomo, one of the most fascinating 14th-century monumental complexes on the island. Surrounded by the silence of ancient architecture and suspended between the sea and the famous Faraglioni rocks, the ceremony blends the beauty of the Capri landscape with the charm of an elegant, international event.

A prestigious hall of fame

Throughout its history, the award has paid tribute to some of the most important figures in entertainment and culture, including Giuseppe Di Stefano, Alberto Sordi, Carla Fracci, Claudia Cardinale, Dino De Laurentiis, Gigi Proietti, Andrea Bocelli, Carlo Verdone, Paolo Sorrentino, and Placido Domingo, who was honored in 2025. This hall of fame testifies to the prestige and continuity of an event that has spanned over thirty years of history.

Capri and Campania, capitals of summer culture

Located in the Gulf of Naples, in Campania, Capri has always been a crossroads of art, high society, and beauty. The Municipality of Capri, in the Province of Naples, welcomes visitors from all over the world every year, drawn by its landscapes and cultural heritage. The Premio Faraglioni is part of this tradition of hospitality and culture, offering an evening that combines Italian artistic excellence with the timeless charm of the island.
