The Romantic Night in the Most Beautiful Villages of Italy

The Romantic Night in Monteprandone

In the heart of Piceno, in the province of Ascoli Piceno, the village of Monteprandone participates every year in the Romantic Night in the Most Beautiful Villages of Italy, the major national event promoted by the association "I Borghi più Belli d'Italia". For one evening, usually around the summer solstice, the historic center dresses up in love and lights up with lights, candles, and themed decorations, offering residents and visitors an intimate and cozy atmosphere.

A National Event, A Local Soul

The Romantic Night involves about two hundred villages throughout Italy every year, with over a thousand scattered initiatives: open-air concerts, guided walks, light installations, dinners under the stars, and symbolic moments like the famous midnight toast and kiss. Each village interprets the theme of love in its own way, enhancing its streets, squares, and most evocative views. Monteprandone, part of the prestigious circuit of the Most Beautiful Villages of Italy, brings the charm of its historic Marche center, linked to the figure of San Giacomo della Marca, to this national calendar.

Atmosphere and Spirit of the Evening

In Monteprandone, the evening focuses on the intimacy of the places: the village is decorated with a theme, the streets of the center come alive with music, and the most characteristic spaces, such as the municipal washhouse and Via degli Orti, become stages for concerts, theatrical performances, and romantic walks. It's an opportunity to rediscover the town at a slow pace, letting yourself be guided by the music and lights, in a setting that combines tradition, culture, and landscape.

Who is it for

The event is organized by the Municipal Administration of Monteprandone, as part of the municipality's rich summer program in the Marche region. Admission is free and the event is suitable for couples, families, and anyone who wants to experience a different night in the village, amidst romance and discovery of the Piceno territory.
