Scialamuni

Scialamuni, summer starts in Brolo

As the sun begins to warm the Tyrrhenian coast, the promenade of Brolo, in the province of Messina, comes alive with Scialamuni, the festival that has chosen the first days of June to officially kick off the Sicilian summer. Organized by the Olimpia Association with the support of the municipal administration, the event has established itself since its first edition as one of the most anticipated gatherings on the Nebrodi coast, drawing thousands of people to the beach.

Music, sea, and big guests

The heart of Scialamuni is music. On the stage set up just a few steps from the shoreline, national headliners and a large group of over sixteen Sicilian DJs take turns at the console from the afternoon until late at night. The program ranges from house and pop to reggaeton and the hottest summer sounds, guiding the audience through a long party that blends entertainment, spectacle, and the joy of being together.

A journey of flavors on the seafront

Alongside the music, Scialamuni offers a vast street food village: gourmet sandwiches, local specialties, craft beers, and cocktails create a culinary trail designed to savor the local tradition with music in the background. The stands animate the entire promenade from early afternoon until evening, in a seaside village atmosphere that engages families, young people, and tourists alike.

A boost for the local area

More than just a party, Scialamuni acts as a platform capable of combining entertainment, tourism, communication, and local development. The event brings tangible benefits to the commercial activities of Brolo and neighboring towns, and helps promote the image of the Tyrrhenian coast of Messina at the start of the summer season. To facilitate participation, in past editions, a dedicated bus service was also activated to and from numerous centers in the area, from Messina to Capo d'Orlando.

Brolo and the Nebrodi coast

Overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea and dominated by its medieval castle, Brolo is one of the most popular seaside resorts in the Nebrodi district. Its wide, central beach is the natural setting for Scialamuni: a stage by the sea that makes the festival a perfect calling card for the start of summer in Sicily.
