Art, Flavours and Music 2026
Event description
On Saturday 8 August 2026, the historic centre of Soriano Calabro will host the sixth edition of the Art, Flavours and Music Festival, an event organised by Pro Loco Sorianidea that celebrates the region’s finest offerings through an engaging journey through gastronomy, crafts, art and entertainment. For one evening, the village is transformed into a lively open-air gathering place, where narrow streets, squares and historic vistas provide the backdrop to an experience that captures the very essence of Calabria.
Strolling through the characteristic streets of the historic centre, visitors can immerse themselves in the aromas and flavours of tradition thanks to the food stalls, where the stars of the show will be the typical specialities of Calabrian cuisine, prepared according to local recipes. It is an opportunity to rediscover authentic products and dishes that tell the story and identity of a region rich in culture and food and wine traditions.
The festival also devotes considerable space to local art and craftsmanship. Artists and craftspeople will bring the village to life with exhibitions, live demonstrations and original creations, offering visitors the chance to learn about ancient trades, artistic techniques and crafts that represent Calabria’s cultural heritage. Every corner of the historic centre thus becomes a meeting place where creativity, tradition and talent converge.
The evening will be accompanied by concerts, live music and performances, which will make the festival’s atmosphere even more enchanting. The music will ring out through the squares and alleyways of Soriano Calabro, creating an exciting journey where flavour, culture and entertainment blend into a single experience capable of engaging visitors of all ages.
Now in its sixth year, the Arte, Sapori e Musica Festival remains one of the most eagerly awaited events of the summer in Soriano, showcasing the town’s historical, artistic and culinary heritage. It is an event that invites you to experience Soriano Calabro at a leisurely pace, letting yourself be charmed by the hospitality, the local specialities and the authentic atmosphere of one of Calabria’s most fascinating towns.
