Concerto all'Alba

A musical awakening in the heart of Conero

The Concert at Dawn is one of the most beloved and photographed events of the summer in Sirolo, a pearl of the Conero Riviera in the province of Ancona, in the Marche region. Every year, on Ferragosto (August 15th), the village wakes up early: at five in the morning, the evocative Piazza Vittorio Veneto, overlooking the Adriatic, becomes the natural stage for a concert that accompanies the sunrise.

The idea is simple and powerful: to gather in the square when the sky is still dark and let yourself be enveloped by music as the light grows over the sea. The notes blend with the colors of dawn, offering an emotion that is hard to forget. It is no coincidence that this event has become one of the symbols of the Sirolo summer.

An experience for everyone, free and open

The Concert at Dawn is free admission, open to residents, vacationers, and the curious of all ages. Some arrive still sleepy, others bring a blanket, some choose to extend the Ferragosto night until that special moment: the audience is always diverse and engaged, thanks to the village setting and the intimate atmosphere of the square.

Sirolo and the Conero Riviera

Sirolo is one of the most charming villages in the Marche region, nestled on the promontory of Monte Conero, between white beaches and crystal-clear waters. A Blue Flag recipient for many years, the Municipality of Sirolo offers a rich calendar of cultural and musical events during the summer, organized in collaboration with the Pro Loco of Sirolo. The Concert at Dawn is the flagship of this program and is part of a season full of concerts, shows, exhibitions, and traditions that liven up the village from spring to September.

Why experience it at least once

Attending the Concert at Dawn means choosing a different and poetic way to experience Ferragosto: away from the crowds during peak hours, immersed in the quiet of the early morning, with live music as the only soundtrack to the awakening of Conero. An event that every year confirms the deep bond between Sirolo, its sea, and its cultural vocation.
