The great Italian gathering for water and wind sports
Every spring, the town of Andora (Province of Savona), on the Riviera di Ponente, becomes the meeting point for water and wind sports enthusiasts. The WindFestival is the main Italian event dedicated to windsurfing, kitesurfing, sailing, and wing foiling, with an exhibition area of approximately 20,000 square meters set up at the Parco delle Farfalle, just a stone's throw from the sea.
The festival's formula is one of active participation: free mini-lessons to get acquainted with the various disciplines, non-competitive races, equipment trials from the best brands in the sector, but also land-based activities such as e-biking and fitness. It is an event designed for both expert athletes, who can try the latest gear, and for the curious and families, who can discover the world of water sports in an accessible way.
In addition to the sporting dimension, the WindFestival promotes the discovery of Andora's hinterland and territory, combining the allure of the sea with that of the hills of the Riviera di Ponente. Over the years, the event has become a benchmark for the entire outdoor sports sector in Italy, attracting enthusiasts from all over the peninsula and beyond.
The 2026 edition of the WindFestival enlivens Andora from April 3rd to 6th, at the Parco delle Farfalle. The main Italian event for water and wind sports offers windsurfing, kitesurfing, sailing, and wing foiling across 20,000 square meters, with free mini-lessons, non-competitive races, equipment trials, and land-based activities like e-biking and fitness. A gathering for enthusiasts, families, and the curious on the Riviera di Ponente.
