The people of Molfetta, full of enthusiasm and happiness, are able to animate the city with all types of events! The cultural fervor that simmers in the streets and squares is one of the characteristics that distinguishes this city from its surroundings.
There are events for people of all ages because growing with the passion for music, theater, cinema, dance and art is a style of life. There are many different types of intelligent and fun activities! Entirely dedicated to the smaller ones, there is the Festival of the Children’s Theater “Ti fiabo e ti racconto” (Fables and Stories), organized by the Teatrermitage (www.tifiaboetiracconto.it).
The streets come to life thanks to the traveling theater, jugglers and storytellers. The Festival is filled with theater companies from all over Italy who compete against each other to win the famous prize called the “Uccellino Azzuro” (Blue Bird). Music lovers cannot miss the appointment with the “Lights and Sounds in Levante” exhibition.
The Vincenzo Maria Valente Foundation (www.fondazionevalente.it) has been organizing famous concerts with artists from Italy and abroad for some time now. It ranges from jazz to classical music, without forgetting songwriters.
Alternative music, underground music, music that makes the young go wild and the hardest and most socially involving music are also played on stage at the Macerie - Baracche Ribelli (via dei Lavoratori Street, in the Industrial Area). It’s a self-managed social space where an alternative economy is promoted through exhibitions of Self-Production. Concerts and theme evenings are one of the specialties of the Eremo Club (www.eremoclub.com) that, amongst other things, organizes the Friendly Thursdays and djset outdoors in the summer.
