The new aperitivo party in Campocavallo di Osimo
The Spritz Festival debuts in 2026 and is the major new event in the rich calendar of festivals and fairs in the Municipality of Osimo, in the province of Ancona, Marche. It takes place in the hamlet of Campocavallo, one of the most active hubs of Osimo's festival tradition, already home to popular events like the Sagra del Leone, Sagra dello Spaghetto, and Festa della Birra. The new event is part of a program that the municipal administration has defined as "record-breaking at the regional level," with fourteen events spread throughout the summer.
From June 19th to 21st, 2026, for three days, Campocavallo celebrates the spritz, the aperitivo that has become a convivial ritual throughout Italy. Following the tradition of Osimo's festivals, the event combines food stalls, local cuisine, live music, and plenty of entertainment, in a friendly and popular atmosphere where people gather in the piazza to toast together and welcome the summer.
The formula is the tried-and-tested one of Marche's village festivals: outdoor tables, local dishes, a bar with spritz as the star, and musical evenings that liven up the hamlet until late. An event designed for all ages, accessible, and with a strong sense of community.
The Spritz Festival is part of the official 2026 festival calendar promoted by the Municipality of Osimo, which has recognized the initiative as a tool for tourism promotion and local tradition enhancement, granting free use of public areas during the event days. Festivals have always been a cornerstone of the identity of Osimo and its hamlets: moments of gathering that attract residents and visitors from all over the Province of Ancona and the Marche region.
The hamlet of Campocavallo, also known for its Marian shrine, is one of the places most closely associated with Osimo's summer festival tradition. Hosting a new festival dedicated to the spritz confirms the vitality of this community and further enriches an offering that, weekend after weekend, accompanies Osimo's summer from June to autumn.
The debut edition of the Spritz Festival takes place in Campocavallo di Osimo from June 19th to 21st, 2026, kicking off Osimo's packed 2026 summer festival calendar. For three days, the hamlet celebrates the spritz, Italy's most beloved aperitivo, with food stalls, local dishes, a bar, and evenings enlivened by live music.
