The summer calendar of sports, cultural, and musical events in Rivisondoli
This edition has not been confirmed by the organiser to date. We recommend checking before going.
Rivisondolevolmente is the summer festival promoted by the Municipality of Rivisondoli, a mountain village at approximately 1,320 meters above sea level in the Alto Sangro, in the province of L'Aquila, Abruzzo. Every year, between July and August, the program features dozens of free events that transform Piazza Garibaldi, the historic center, and the village squares into an open-air stage.
The program alternates between evening concerts, cabaret shows, musical evenings, and activities for all ages. Recent editions have seen Piazza Garibaldi host well-known names in Italian music, evenings dedicated to the 80s and 90s repertoire, fashion shows, DJ sets, and events for children. The cultural section includes painting and sculpture exhibitions at the Civic Museum and the Cultural Center, book presentations, and traditional antique markets in the village squares.
Among the most characteristic events in the calendar is the Calici in Jazz & Arts Festival, which combines jazz music, art, and wine tastings between Piazza Garibaldi and the historic center, with tasting points distributed throughout the village streets. It is one of the initiatives that best captures the identity of Rivisondoli, blending musical quality, local products, and the historic setting of the village.
Rivisondoli has long been a destination for summer sports training camps thanks to its cool climate and high-altitude facilities. The calendar hosts pre-season training for professional football teams and athletics camps, which complement the cultural and musical events, bringing athletes, staff, and fans from all over Italy to the village.
Located a stone's throw from Roccaraso, Pescocostanzo, and Castel di Sangro, Rivisondoli is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the Abruzzo mountains, also famous for its Christmas living nativity scene. During the summer, Rivisondolevolmente accompanies the tourist season with an offering designed for families, hikers, and vacationers, enhancing the heritage and popular traditions of the Municipality and the entire Alto Sangro territory.
At the current date, the official calendar for Rivisondolevolmente 2026 has not yet been published. The Municipality of Rivisondoli confirms the village's summer vocation, with a season strongly oriented towards sports and tourism: training camps and stages for teams and athletes are expected in the L'Aquila Apennines, alongside the usual cultural and musical initiatives. The detailed program of events, dates, and locations will be released by the Municipality in the weeks leading up to summer.
Rivisondoli is located in the Alto Sangro (AQ), along the state road connecting Roccaraso to Castel di Sangro. By car, it can be reached from the A25 motorway (Pratola Peligna-Sulmona exit), continuing towards the Cinque Miglia plateau. The Roccaraso-Rivisondoli-Pescocostanzo railway station is served by the Sulmona-Isernia line.
Most events in the Rivisondolevolmente calendar are free and take place outdoors in Piazza Garibaldi and the historic center. The detailed program is released every summer by the Municipality of Rivisondoli. For updated information on dates and events, it is recommended to consult the Municipality's website and the Public Relations Office.
