Sirolo's great summer of music, theatre, and shows on the Conero Riviera
Every year, from late spring to September, the Municipality of Sirolo (Province of Ancona) lights up its richest summer programme: the Serate tutte da vivere festival, a widespread calendar of over 200 events that animate the squares, churches, panoramic viewpoints, and especially the Arena Parco della Repubblica, a natural terrace overlooking the Conero sea. For the 2026 edition, the organisation is handled by Universal Events together with the municipal administration.
Sirolo is one of the jewels of the Conero Riviera, in the Marche region: a medieval village perched above postcard-perfect beaches like San Michele and Due Sorelle, awarded the Blue Flag every year. It is precisely this setting – the green of the Conero Park, the blue of the Adriatic, the walls and squares of the historic centre – that makes every evening unique, where a sunset concert or a starlit performance becomes an all-round experience.
The pulsating heart of the festival is the programme at the Arena Parco della Repubblica, which attracts top names in Italian music and entertainment. Alongside concerts by major artists, there is theatre, monologues, comedy, meetings with writers and speakers, dance, and open-air cinema. Most events have free admission; only about ten evenings, those with major stars, are ticketed with advance sales on TicketOne.
Sirolo's cultural offering goes beyond concerts: the Premio Nazionale Franco Enriquez dedicated to theatre, the organ festival Le ore dell'organo in the Church of San Nicola, open-air cinema, the Ballo sotto le stelle dance evenings, the Notte Bianca dei Bambini (White Night for Children), and the traditional dawn concert on Ferragosto (August 15th) in Piazza Vittorio Veneto. A season designed for all ages and tastes, capable of transforming the entire Sirolo summer into one long, continuous celebration.
For the summer of 2026, the Municipality of Sirolo, on the Conero Riviera, offers a widespread programme of over 200 events from late April to September, with the heart of the programme at the Arena Parco della Repubblica. Only about ten evenings are ticketed (tickets on TicketOne), while most events remain free admission. Alongside the major concerts, the season includes the Premio Nazionale Franco Enriquez, the organ festival in the Church of San Nicola, open-air cinema, and numerous initiatives for families and children.
The complete calendar, continuously updated, includes over 200 events.
Sirolo is located on the Conero Riviera, in the Province of Ancona. By car: A14 motorway, exit Ancona Sud, then SS16 and follow signs for Conero. The nearest train station is Ancona; during the summer, the Conerobus shuttle bus service is available to reach the centre and the beaches.
Most of the over 200 events offer free admission. Only about ten evenings (major concerts and shows at the Arena Parco della Repubblica) are ticketed: tickets are available in advance on TicketOne.
During high season, the village is very crowded: it's advisable to arrive early and park in the external areas served by shuttle buses. Don't miss a sunset stroll through the historic centre before the show.
