Summer Fest

Summer Fest: summer by the sea in Sant'Agata

Summer Fest is the festival that kicks off the summer season on the seafront of Sant'Agata di Militello, a lively tourist and commercial hub overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, in the metropolitan city of Messina and the heart of the Nebrodi coast. For two evenings, the spacious, shaded, and lively promenade turns into an open-air summer village, where live music meets DJ sets and food stalls.

Concerts, DJ sets, and street food

The Summer Fest formula combines concerts and entertainment into one big open-air party. The evenings begin in the late afternoon and continue until late at night, with a stage on the seafront, entertainment, and DJ sets accompanying the audience. All around, street food stalls offer specialties to enjoy while strolling, while the sea and the silhouette of the castle provide a natural backdrop to the event.

A popular and free event

Designed to be accessible to everyone, Summer Fest offers free admission and attracts families, young people, and visitors who choose Sant'Agata di Militello as a stop along the Tyrrhenian coast during the summer. The event is part of the rich calendar of the Sant'Agata summer, consisting of concerts, shows, tastings, and initiatives that enliven the town during the warmer months.

Sant'Agata di Militello and the Nebrodi coast

Located halfway between Messina and Palermo, Sant'Agata di Militello is one of the most popular seaside resorts on the Sicilian Tyrrhenian side. Its tree-lined seafront, beaches, and proximity to the Nebrodi Park make it a popular destination in summer. Summer Fest captures this convivial and welcoming spirit, giving the city two nights of free-entry festivities just a stone's throw from the sea.
