Find your authentic operatic voice on the Adriatic Sea

June 18-July 6, 2024

Bellissima Cesenatico

Situated on the beautiful Adriatic Sea, this historic fishing village - with its Porto Canale designed by Leonardo DaVinci - is a perfect juxtaposition between the historic and the contemporary. With endless history and charm, and equally endless sand and azure water, Cesenatico is the perfect place for hard work, and equally hard play. Performance experience in a 19th century jewel-box theatre steps away from the historic part of town, and the ability to be immersed in a town that has been unspoiled by english-speaking tourism, will give you the push you need to become more fluent in the rich Italian language and culture of opera.

Join us in the summer of 2024 for Opera al Mare.

Welcome to Cesenatico, your musical home away from home.
