Sagra · August 28, 2026 – August 29, 2026 · Bellaria-Igea Marina (Rimini)
Some places truly capture the soul of a city on a summer evening. In Bellaria Igea Marina, the Porto Canale (Canal Port) is one of them. Amidst boats, shimmering reflections on the water, and the scent of the sea, Il Gusto del Porto returns – an event celebrating maritime tradition through delicious food and the joy of togetherness. On the evenings of Friday, August 28th and Saturday, August 29th, the port will come alive with a gastronomic journey dedicated to the flavors of the sea. You'll savor dishes prepared according to traditional local recipes, highlighting fresh catch and regional specialties. Live music will accompany guests, creating a pleasant and engaging atmosphere along the entire route. Il Gusto del Porto is a unique opportunity to experience one of Bellaria Igea Marina's iconic locations from a different perspective, strolling amidst the aromas of seafood cuisine, the lights of the port, and that convivial atmosphere that has always characterized summers on the Rimini Riviera.
Indulge in a delightful array of local flavors, from refreshing aperitifs and cocktails to sweet bomboloni. Savor traditional first courses like cuttlefish broth with monfrigoli pasta and lasagna with pesto and shrimp. Don't miss the marinated sardoncini (sardines) with onion and piadina, a local specialty, or the crispy mixed fried fish and grilled fish skewers. For a true taste of street food, try the sardoncini with radicchio, onion, and piadina.
