About Celestial Night

The Celestial Night is the great festival that illuminates the spas of Emilia-Romagna in celestial blue. In Castrocaro Terme and Terra del Sole, from June 26 to 28, 2026, an entire weekend of wellness, culture, and conviviality: open day of thermal treatments, open-air dinner on Viale Marconi, slow walks between Sasso Spungone and the Bolga lakes, meditation and yoga in the Festival Pavilion, visits to the Fortress and panoramic aperitifs. The 2026 theme is 'It's a Celebration in the Land of Well-being'.

The Celestial Night in Castrocaro Terme and Terra del Sole

The Celestial Night is the event that annually tints the spa towns of Emilia-Romagna with celestial blue, transforming the spas into places of widespread celebration. Promoted by APT Servizi Emilia-Romagna, the initiative involves over twenty spa centers in various locations across the region, with dozens of events designed to celebrate well-being and togetherness. Among the most scenic participants in this network is the Municipality of Castrocaro Terme e Terra del Sole, in the province of Forlì-Cesena, where the 14th edition takes place from June 26 to 28, 2026 with the theme 'It's a Celebration in the Land of Well-being'.

A Weekend of Spas, Nature, and Culture

The Castrocaro program blends health, landscape, and tradition. The festival opens on Friday with the Open Day of inhalation treatments at the Spas, a free opportunity to discover the benefits of thermal waters, and continues in the evening with the Celestial Dinner on Viale Marconi: a grand open-air dinner with a white and celestial blue dress code and music, transforming the street into a widespread restaurant under the stars.

Saturday is dedicated to the body and nature: meditation and yoga sessions in the evocative Festival Pavilion, the afternoon Slow Walk to discover Sasso Spungone and the Bolga lakes, and the Magic Night with a DJ set, welcome drink, and access to the thermal spa. Sunday concludes the weekend with a guided tour of the Festival Pavilion, an Art Deco jewel by master Tito Chini, a visit to the historic Fortress of Castrocaro with the Rocca, Arsenals, and the Historical-Archaeological Museum, and the Celestial Aperitif on the panoramic terrace.

The Spas of Emilia-Romagna Celebrate

The Celestial Night was created to showcase the great thermal tradition of Emilia-Romagna: a network of springs, parks, and establishments that make the region one of Italy's capitals of thermalism. In Castrocaro, the dimension of well-being is combined with culture, thanks to the Liberty and Art Deco heritage of the Spas and the medieval village of Terra del Sole, a fortified city founded by the Medici. Therefore, the event is both a relaxing experience and an opportunity to discover a little-known corner of the Forlì Apennines.
