Smile Numana

Smile Numana, author's comedy on the Conero Riviera

Smile Numana is the comedy review that every summer transforms the squares of the Municipality of Numana, in the Marche region, into an open-air theater. Promoted by the Municipality of Numana as part of the town's rich summer program, the event brings some of the most well-known comedians and cabaret artists from the Italian television and theater scene to the stage, with shows designed for the general public and families on vacation.

A review in the heart of the Conero Riviera

The events take place on summer evenings, mainly in Piazza del Santuario, in the historic center of Numana, and in Piazza Miramare, in the seaside hamlet of Marcelli. The choice of squares, overlooking the sea and the Conero promontory, makes the evenings an experience that combines entertainment, landscape, and the typical holiday atmosphere of the Marche Adriatic coast. The shows, generally scheduled at 9:30 PM, are free admission thanks to the support of the sponsors who accompany the entire Numana summer.

The protagonists

Over the years, Smile Numana has hosted well-known names in Italian comedy, including cabaret, monologues, and one-man shows. The program alternates television comedians, comic theater artists, and shows that mix laughter, music, and entertainment for all ages. The review is now a regular fixture of the Numana summer, capable of attracting a large audience to the village squares.
