From 19 to 21 September, Riccione will host the first edition of the "Beer Fest", a great end-of-summer food and wine and music event that promises to transform the heart of the city into a stage of conviviality, tradition and fun, with authentic flavours and good music. The park of Villa Lodi Fé becomes a meeting place open to everyone - families, young people, residents and tourists - in a festive atmosphere reminiscent of the famous Tyrolean atmosphere, where the beer festival is an integral part of culture and tradition.

Colours, music, good food and a great desire to get together, with the tapping staff in typical dress amidst lederhosen and dirndl and coloured flags brightening up the atmosphere.

The protagonists will be the light and dark beers of the South Tyrolean brewery Forst, served in classic formats and mugs, together with a rich and varied gastronomic offer, from food trucks with burgers, fries and fried food, to the Aperol corner dedicated to aperitifs.

There will also be a spectacular moment with the traditional opening of the wooden keg by gravity, a ritual typical of Tyrolean and Bavarian festivals that involves hitting the tap with a hammer to make the beer flow directly by gravity.

Making the atmosphere even more exciting will be the animation of the DJ set with folk and popular music, alternating with well-known hits, which will accompany the party from start to finish.

"The Beer Fest" opens its doors on Friday 19 September from 5pm to midnight, continuing on Saturday 20 from 12pm until midnight and concluding on Sunday 21 from 12pm to 10pm. Admission is free. In the event of bad weather, the event will be postponed to the following weekend, 26-28 September.
