Tiramolla by Night

Dodici Morelli's Summer Festival

Tiramolla by Night is the big early summer festival of the hamlet of Dodici Morelli (XII Morelli), in the Municipality of Cento, in the province of Ferrara. For three consecutive evenings, the Municipal Sports Field on via Maestra Grande transforms into a large open-air stage, with live music, local cuisine, and lots of fun for all ages. It's one of those village festivals that tell the story of the Emilia-Romagna identity: born from volunteer work, built for togetherness, and capable of attracting people from all over the Cento area.

Who Organizes It

Behind Tiramolla by Night is Pro Loco Tiramòla APS, an association of about forty volunteers who animate the life of Dodici Morelli throughout the year, from the Night Carnival to the Tiramolla Beerfest. They are the ones who set up the stage, cook, manage the stands, and welcome visitors, with the patronage of the Municipality of Cento, the Province of Ferrara, and the Emilia-Romagna Region.

Music, Flavors, and Entertainment

The program strongly focuses on live music, with tribute bands and themed evenings ranging from rock to 90s hits to Italian summer vibes in the style of Jovanotti. Every evening, starting at 7:30 PM, the kitchen opens with aperitifs accompanied by music, and the food area is available, while children have inflatables at their disposal and the more curious can browse the stalls of the artisan market. There are also gatherings for sports cars and Vespas, workshops for young people, and dance performances.

Part of the "Di Frazione in Frazione" Project

From 2026, Tiramolla by Night officially joins the "Di Frazione in Frazione" project, a network connecting the main summer events of the hamlets around Cento, supported by the Municipality of Cento and the Emilia-Romagna Region. The idea is to create a single itinerary that accompanies residents and visitors throughout the summer, where each festival is a stop and each stop is a stamp to collect, from the Dodici Morelli Beerfest to the San Luigi Festival in Corporeno, passing through events in Renazzo and Casumaro.

A Family Evening

Admission is free, making it the ideal formula for a genuine evening: arrive, dine on traditional dishes, listen to good music, and let the children run wild among the games and inflatables. Tiramolla by Night is the most authentic face of summer in the Cento area, one made of community, volunteerism, and the desire to be together under the sky of the Bassa Ferrarese.
