Ferragosto in Amalfi promises to be fiery, with a week of events that promise to bring music, art and fun for everyone. The program of “Amalfi Summer Fest”, promoted by the Municipality of Amalfi under the guidance of Mayor Daniele Milano, offers an irresistible mix of live shows, cultural events and moments of aggregation for adults and children.
### New for 2024: "45 Tours of Italy"
One of the great novelties of this edition is “45 Giri d'Italia”, an event dedicated to vinyl enthusiasts that will be held on Monday 12 August 2024 from 19:30 pm. The evening will transform Piazza Duomo into a unique musical retrospective, with a live set on 45 rpm vinyl curated by Alfonso Liguori and Filippo Di Costanzo, accompanied by the voice of Maurizio Di Pino. The atmosphere will be made even more suggestive by the architectural lights that will illuminate the vaults of the Amalfi Cathedral.
### The Return of Frankie & Canthina Band
On Wednesday, August 14, 2024, starting at 22:15 PM, the stage in Piazza Duomo will welcome Frankie & Canthina Band for a live performance that promises to be unforgettable. With a 70-piece lineup, the band will perform a repertoire of soul, funk, and dance music from the '80s and '25s, reviving classics by Earth, Wind, and Fire and Kool and the Gang. For over XNUMX years, Frankie Lo Vecchio and his band have been rocking squares and clubs in Italy and abroad, and are ready to dazzle Amalfi audiences with their overwhelming energy.
### Events for Children
Even the little ones will have their moment of fun with “Arts for Kids,” an art workshop scheduled for Tuesday, August 13, 2024, at 18:30 pm at La Pineta Park.
