About Water and Miracles

Acque e Miracoli a Tebano is the evocative hilly preview of the Arena delle Balle di Paglia in Cotignola, hosted on the hills of Polo di Tebano, a hamlet of the Municipality of Castel Bolognese, in the province of Ravenna. For a few summer evenings, the landscape, storytelling, and community come together in a program of nature walks, folk-pop concerts, talks, installations, and local food and wine. Promoted by the Associazione Amici del fiume Senio, the event is one of the established appointments of the Summer Evenings of Castel Bolognese.

A Summer on the Hills of Tebano

Acque e Miracoli a Tebano is a multi-sensory event that takes place on the hills of Polo di Tebano, a hilly area on the border between Faenza and the Municipality of Castel Bolognese, in the province of Ravenna, in the heart of Emilia-Romagna. Born as a hilly preview of the Arena delle Balle di Paglia di Cotignola, the festival shares its philosophy: a place where landscape, storytelling, and community come together to create creative experiences immersed in nature.

Walks, Music, and Good Cheer

The program blends different genres and languages over the course of a few summer evenings. The days begin in the late afternoon with guided walks through vineyards, badlands, and sites of geological and naturalistic interest, often accompanied by birdwatching moments. As evening falls, there are talks, concerts, and comedy shows, while the catering service offers local street food and regional wines.

  • Nature walks through the hills and symbolic places of the Senio river
  • Concerts of folk and singer-songwriter music under the summer sky
  • Talks and storytelling dedicated each year to a different theme
  • Comedy and theater performances to close the evening
  • Food and wine with typical products, street food, and wines from the Faenza hills

A Network of Communities

The event is promoted by the Associazione Amici del fiume Senio, in collaboration with the organizers of the Arena delle Balle di Paglia and with the support of local authorities and the Emilia-Romagna Region. The event is part of the Sere d'Estate (Summer Evenings) program, the summer festival of the Municipality of Castel Bolognese, which brings together dozens of events including music, theater, cinema, and culture.

An Event Rooted in the Territory

Acque e Miracoli a Tebano is now a well-established event of the Castel Bolognese summer: it combines the enhancement of the hilly landscape and the Senio river with a cultural offering, with a focus on environmental sustainability and the participation of the local community. Each edition revolves around a narrative theme that links walks, music, and gastronomy into a single, widespread experience among the hills.

Water and Miracles — edition 2026

Acque e Miracoli a Tebano returns in Summer 2026 as a regular fixture of Castel Bolognese's Summer Evenings. The hilly event, a preview of the Arena delle Balle di Paglia in Cotignola, will once again offer nature walks, concerts, talks, and food and wine experiences on the hills of Polo di Tebano. The exact dates and detailed program will be announced in the weeks preceding the event through the official channels of the Municipality and the Associazione Amici del fiume Senio.

The 2026 edition of Acque e Miracoli a Tebano is confirmed within the Sere d'Estate 2026 (Summer Evenings 2026) program of Castel Bolognese, which from May to September features over eighty events.
