From June 27 to July 2, 2026, the Italian seaside resort of Gabicce Mare will host the International Festival-Contest “VIVA ITALIA” – an event that brings together performers, creative ensembles, and artists from different countries for several days dedicated to the performing arts.

The festival offers a wide competition program including vocal art, choreography, instrumental music, composition, folklore, theatre, original genre, and fashion theatre. Both professional performers and students from specialized schools, as well as amateur groups, cultural centers, and art schools, are welcome to participate.

The performances will take place in a concert format on an open-air stage in the city center, while participants will be evaluated by an international jury of established cultural professionals. The best performers will receive the Grand Prix, laureate titles, and special awards.

In addition to the competition program, the festival also offers opportunities for cultural meetings, seaside relaxation, and additional excursions, turning participation into a complete creative and tourist experience.

The organizers invite solo performers and creative groups to join the “VIVA ITALIA” festival and submit their applications for participation.
