The summer evening event by Pro Loco Coelentia in Piazza del Popolo
Vibes d'estate is the summer evening event that brings music and joy to Piazza del Popolo, the heart of Celenza sul Trigno, a village in the Alto Vastese area of the Chieti province, Abruzzo. The event is organized by Pro Loco Coelentia, the association dedicated to promoting the town's cultural and social life, and has quickly become one of the most anticipated summer highlights in Celenza.
The formula for Vibes d'estate is simple and successful: music provided by DJs who keep the square lively until late, food stalls featuring local specialties, and a great desire to enjoy time together outdoors. In the first edition, porchetta sandwiches and draft beer accompanied the DJ sets in a relaxed, festive atmosphere that brought together people of all ages. The organizers' stated goal is to convey "a new, positive, and engaging energy" that brings citizens back into the squares and introduces the village to visitors from further afield.
Vibes d'estate was born as the debut event for the new board of Pro Loco Coelentia, which aimed to launch its tenure with a festival capable of "uniting tradition and innovation." The association, named after the town's ancient Latin toponym, has been a key player in Celenza sul Trigno's summer scene for years, alongside other events like the Borgo e Gusto festival.
Perched on a hill overlooking the Trigno river valley, on the border between Abruzzo and Molise, Celenza sul Trigno is a small town in the Vastese area rich in history and folk traditions. Its historic center, with its alleys and squares, provides a natural backdrop for summer events: attending Vibes d'estate is also an opportunity to discover the hospitality and genuine flavors of the Chieti hinterland, far from the more crowded tourist routes of the Adriatic coast.
The second edition of Vibes d'estate is scheduled for Saturday, July 11, 2026, from 8:00 PM, in Piazza del Popolo in Celenza sul Trigno. The open-air evening format created by Pro Loco Coelentia is confirmed; following the successful debut the previous year, the association once again brings music, DJ sets, and food stalls to the center of the village. Details regarding the musical program and gastronomic offerings will be released by the organizers in the weeks leading up to the event via the association's social media channels.
Vibes d'estate takes place in Piazza del Popolo, in the historic center of Celenza sul Trigno (CH), Abruzzo.
By car: take the A14 motorway to the Vasto Sud exit, then continue inland along the Trigno Valley towards Celenza sul Trigno. The village can also be reached via the Fondovalle Trigno road, which connects Abruzzo and Molise.
The event is free to attend. Food and drinks at the stalls can be purchased on-site.
Comfortable clothing is recommended for the outdoor evening. For updated information on dates and the program, you can follow the Pro Loco Coelentia Facebook page.
