https://www.notedifuoco.it/+39 320 8491464 ass.creativamente@gmail.comPast present and future will be the wings of an evocative and poetic journey that will have as its backdrop the sky and the sea illuminated by fireworks On Friday 25 July, we fly on the wings of the past, with the re-enactment of a grand medieval procession animated by swordsmen and drums and the most famous opera arias. On the beach, meanwhile, preparations will be made for a spectacle immersed in a dreamlike atmosphere: a siren's song will arrive from the sea (she will perform live) and her appearance will set off the fireworks on the water and the cheerful kermis of the street performers on the promenade. Saturday 26, the second day of Note di Fuoco, will be dedicated to the present. The journey will continue with a setting that will range from the 1960s to the present day, with fireworks, parades, music, entertainment, and a show within a show, with the in-water performance of two flyboards that will hover over the sea. On Sunday 27 July, we travel into the future, with a big parade, electronic music, fireworks on the water, and many surprises still awaiting official announcement. Also on the programme are excursions and trekking in the old town, swimming competitions, football and padel tournaments.
