RIMINI
Let’s start from the city of Rimini that this year has rich events scheduled from December 6th to January 6th in a single big initiative: New Year’s Eve in Romagna.
In Rimini, the Italian artists Coez and Planet Funk will perform in Piazza Fellini and in Piazza Malatesta. From 9.00 pm the music of Coez will enliven the city center until midnight when the traditional fireworks will light up the winter sea.
At the same time, Piazza Malatesta will be transformed into a large disco with the exhibition of Planet Funk for a party that will last until the morning with some Italian Club Culture historic DJs: Ricky Montanari and Daniele Baldelli.
Worth a mention also the “Fellini 100 and La Dolce Vita” exhibition, a sort of anticipation of the brand new Fellini Museum that will officially open to the public at the end of 2020, and that will open its doors from December 14th in the historic location of Castel Sismondo.

RICCIONE
If you like dancing, Riccione is the right place for you. As per tradition, the Adriatic city will host Radio Deejay and its dream team for a three-day in music.
The event will start on December 29 at 16.30 Piazzale Ceccarini when the famous Italian singers Mahmood and Emma Marrone, two of the most famous singers, will perform their free concerts in the city center.
The New Year’s Eve instead will be characterized by a festive atmosphere and beautiful music to greet the new year together with Italian radio speakers Alex Farolfi, Chicco Giuliani and the ballet group of Deejay On Stage always with the conducting of Rudy Zerbi.
Also noteworthy is the Ezio Bosso greeting concert in the packed program of Riccione Ice Carpet events, which will enliven the Palazzo dei Congressi spaces on December 29th.
SAN LEO
Fireworks and toasts in the square scheduled for the New Year’s Eve of San Leo, one of the most fascinating historic villages of Romagna.
At the stroke of midnight, a fireworks display from the Fortress will liven up the longest night of the year with parties and toasts in the square for a crackling start in 2019.
CERVIA
A great New Year’s Eve party organized in the evocative setting of the historic harbor, this is, in short, the program of the New Year in the city of Cervia between shopping, tastings of local products and the exciting fireworks concert on the historic harbor (but also music, dancing, entertainment and gala dinner at the salt warehouses).
CESENATICO
The renowned seaside village of Cesenatico relies on the traditional “New Year’s Eve on the historic harbor“, an outdoor event animated by the music and energy of the Radio Bruno’s DJs. Also, in this case, don’t miss the suggestive floating Marine Crib, unique in its kind.
RAVENNA
A New Year’s Day in the sign of celebration and fun is what awaits you in the ancient Byzantine city. This year, the arrival of the New Year will be celebrated in Piazza del Popolo with a great concert dedicated to soul and gospel music with the Spirit of New Orleans + Noreda Graves, which starting from 11.00 pm will lead citizens and tourists to a big party.
We suggest not to miss also the 3D video-mapping installations of the “Ravenna in Luce” exhibition that will see the San Vitale Basilica, the MAR Museum and finally Piazzetta dell’Unità d’Italia with two video projections dedicated to the theme of travel.
Many pubs and clubs in the center will be open during the night for aperitifs, dinners, and balls. Finally, the party will move to the Artificerie Almagià where, until the first light of morning, you can toast the New Year by dancing to the rhythm of the music.
The Byzantine city for the whole month of December and until the first days of January will offer many cultural opportunities with guided tours to discover the historic center and extraordinary openings of its monuments (here the whole program).
GATTEO
As is tradition, the town of Gatteo proposes an afternoon in the name of joy and fun on January 1st, to continue exchanging greetings, dancing, and toasting.
Finally, do not miss in the evening the performances of the Italian comedian of Paolo Cevoli, the singer Ivana Spagna and the overwhelming energy of the OxxxA.
FERRARA
In Ferrara, the party to greet the new year will instead involve all the squares of the historic center of UNESCO, waiting for the traditional fireworks of the Este Castle at midnight on the 31st, to greet the new year with cascades of colors and swirls of lights.

Also for the evening of the last year, Comacchio returns to its ancient splendor with delicious dinners in the enchanting and historic halls of the Museo del Delta Antico, with a visit to the museum, and to Palazzo Bellini.
