“FORIO MOOD” IS BORN: FORIO'S SUMMER COMES ALIVE!
2026-08-08 19:00 - 21:00 | Comune di Forio (Piazza Municipio, 1, 80075 Forio NA, Italia)
The Municipal Administration has approved “FORIO MOOD,” a new events program designed to accompany residents and visitors throughout the summer season, bringing together entertainment, commerce, and local promotion within a coordinated and shared vision.
The project was created in collaboration with shop owners, business operators, and entrepreneurs from the Via Marina seafront, the Historic Center, Vico San Gaetano, and the wider local area. They are the promoters of the initiative “I Giovedì Foriani e i Sabati d’Estate” (“Forian Thursdays and Summer Saturdays”), with the goal of transforming our town into a true open-air living room, featuring live music, social gatherings, and the promotion of local businesses.
Music, Events, and Entertainment
Until September 10, every Thursday and Saturday, Forio will host events dedicated to socializing and promoting a vibrant yet responsible nightlife, combining fun, high-quality experiences, and respect for the local community and environment.
A Strong Focus on Safety
All events will be held in full compliance with current regulations regarding safety and security, noise control, urban decorum, and the protection of public peace and quiet. Organizers will provide dedicated security and monitoring services to ensure that each event takes place in an orderly, safe, and respectful environment for both residents and visitors.
“Forio Mood” represents an important example of collaboration between public institutions and local businesses, which will contribute directly to the organization and sustainability of the events, with no costs borne by the Municipality.
“Forio Mood” will also serve as a unique visual and promotional identity, designed to showcase a lively, dynamic, and increasingly attractive summer season, highlighting our seafront, historic center, and the entire municipal area.
Forio welcomes you to experience a summer filled with emotions, music, and beauty.

Festa a mare agli scogli di Sant'Anna
2026-07-26 17:00 - 21:30 | Borgo di Ischia Ponte (Piazzale Aragonese, 1, 80077 Ischia, Naples, Italy)
Starting at 7:00 PM, the Città di Ischia Musical Band will parade through the historic centre of Ischia Ponte, with several stops along the route up to Piazzale Aragonese and back, performing symphonic marches.
At 7:30 PM, the pre-festival programme begins with a presentation by Anna Castagna, who will introduce the audience to artist Romolo Bianco. He will perform a voice and guitar show, taking the audience on a journey through the melodies of classic Neapolitan songs while accompanying the anticipation of the most magical night of the Ischian summer.
At around 9:00 PM, the bay will be transformed by the colours of the celebration, hosted by Mariagrazia Nicotra, Claudio Iacono, and Beppi Banfi, who will launch the evening’s magic with the parade of the four allegorical boats.
Among this year’s new highlights, one in particular carries the scent of myth and rises from the sea:“Sirenes – Mermaid Experience”, a legend brought to life, created and imagined by Alessandro D’Auria in the beating heart of Cartaromana Bay.
Here, the water becomes a stage—fluid, luminous, and boundless. The sea itself will welcome a performance designed to enchant, move, and remain forever in the memories of those who experience the evening.
Following the parade of the allegorical boats, the award ceremony and the announcement of the winning association will take place. The night will culminate with the highly anticipated illumination of Aragonese Castle, followed by a spectacular pyromusical fireworks show that will transform the bay into a scene of wonder and enchantment. https://eventi.ischia.it/en/events/intrattenimento/by-night/event/250471-festa-a-mare-agli-scogli-di-santanna

SYNOPSISZootopia 2, directed by Byron Howard and Rich Moore, brings back the beloved duo of police officers Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde, who in the previous film successfully joined the Zootopia Police Department together. This time, the two partners must investigate a new case that could prove to be the most challenging and complex of their careers.A mysterious reptile named Gary arrives in Zootopia and throws the mammal metropolis into chaos. While attending an exclusive party where a mysterious book is about to be unveiled, Judy (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin) and Nick (voiced by Jason Bateman) find themselves trying to stop Gary De'Snake (voiced by Ke Huy Quan) from stealing it.However, their attempt to capture him goes wrong, and Judy and Nick are mistakenly accused of being Gary’s accomplices, forcing them to go on the run alongside him. They soon discover that Gary is not the villain they thought he was—in fact, he was trying to recover the book because it contains information that could restore his damaged reputation.The real threat is someone else: a figure who, in the past, was willing to kill to get their hands on the same book—and who will do so again unless Nick and Judy can stop them.The investigation will put their partnership to the ultimate test, challenging the bond between the two agents like never before.

22:45 GLI OCCHI DEGLI ALTRI by Andrea De Sica – 90’
SYNOPSISThe Eyes of Others, directed by Andrea De Sica, is loosely inspired by the infamous Casati Stampa murder case, one of the most scandalous crimes in post-war Italy.The film revisits the excesses and decadence of an era through a modern, fierce, and intensely suspenseful perspective. Set against the opulent and untamed backdrop of a private island owned by a wealthy and disillusioned marquis, the arrival of Elena (Jasmine Trinca) marks the beginning of a passionate and dangerous relationship.Through erotic role-playing, voyeurism, complicity, and challenges that push the boundaries of morality, the protagonists become immersed in a relationship driven by the desire to be seen while breaking every rule.But when the game turns into obsession and love becomes a battleground between control and surrender, everything begins to collapse. Their fragile balance is shattered by an escalating spiral of jealousy, manipulation, and violence that leads to a tragic ending.A story about the power of the gaze and the vertigo that emerges when intimacy is placed on display.A tale of a destructive love and death.

Tess, meanwhile, reflects on the sacrifices she has made for her family and on her own sense of self, as she is forced to redefine her priorities and confront the challenges of life on her own.As they navigate their separation, the two must learn how to manage co-parenting, establish new family dynamics, and rediscover the very meaning of love—which can evolve and take unexpected forms even after a marriage has ended.Through intimate reflections, moments of humor, and personal growth, the film explores with sensitivity and honesty how two people can part ways while continuing to grow together as a family.

SYNOPSISAmarga Navidad, directed by Pedro Almodóvar, tells two interwoven stories set in different periods of time.The first follows Elsa, a commercial director, in 2004, during the long holiday break in December. The second takes place in 2026 and centers on Raúl, a screenwriter and director working on a screenplay that we gradually discover is the story of Elsa, her partner Bonifacio, and her friends Patricia and Natalia.Blurring the boundaries between fiction and reality, Elsa becomes a kind of alter ego for Raúl, who turns to autofiction as a way to overcome a long period of creative emptiness. By looking inward, Raúl inevitably turns his gaze toward the people who make up his most intimate world: his partner and his assistant.The film explores the deep connection between reality and fiction, between inspiration and life itself, while reflecting on the boundaries and possibilities of autofiction.

They are Samanta (Claudia Pandolfi), beautiful and fearless; Gudrun (Teresa Saponangelo), an Italian-Norwegian woman; Fiammetta (Livia Ferri), a former rising star of the independent music scene; and Anny (Rosanna Sparapano), a brilliant hacker.

But the true journey is an inner one: through difficult climbs and breathtaking yet harsh landscapes, fragments of lives marked by mistakes, wounds, and unfulfilled desires begin to emerge.Nature becomes a space for confrontation and possibility. Talking, sharing their stories, and even singing together allow the women to ease their tensions and rediscover a sense of belonging.In this challenging yet supportive environment, their differences begin to intertwine and something starts to change. The simple act of telling one’s story can become the first step toward a greater transformation—both personal and collective.Until an unexpected event puts everything

10:30 PM – One Battle After Another by Paul Thomas Anderson (162 min)

SYNOPSISOne Battle After Another, directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, follows the story of a group of former American revolutionaries forced to reunite when the past returns in the form of a terrifying threat.Sixteen years have passed since Bob Ferguson (Leonardo DiCaprio), once a charismatic and idealistic figure within the libertarian collective French 75, abandoned armed struggle to retreat into a marginal and isolated life. Today, Bob is a weary man with long hair, handlebar mustache, a soul marked by regret, and an existence clouded by addiction.By his side is Perfidia (Teyana Taylor), a determined civil rights activist and his partner, along with their teenage daughter Wilma, born from a love that challenged social conventions and prejudice.But the fragile peace they have painfully built is shattered when a familiar and terrifying figure returns: Colonel Steven J. Lockjaw (Sean Penn), a fanatical nationalist and white supremacist who was once the sworn enemy of the French 75 and is now the leader of a violent armed militia.To Lockjaw, the interracial relationship between Bob and Perfidia represents an ideological threat, and their daughter Wilma becomes a target to be eliminated.When Wilma is kidnapped, Bob is forced to do the one thing he swore he would never do again: return to the fight. With Perfidia and his former comrades at his side, he must face a ruthless enemy in a race against time, where the stakes are not only his daughter’s survival but also the chance to rewrite his own destiny.An emotional and political journey through the contradictions of contemporary America, One Battle After Another is a profound exploration of what remains of our ideals when reality turns cruel. https://eventi.ischia.it/en/events/intrattenimento/by-night/event/250512-ischia-global-fest-2026-una-battaglia-dopo-laltra

8:30 PM – WHY HER by Jonathan Elia and Tommaso Furgione – 7 minFollowed by HAMNET by Chloé Zhao – 125 min
SYNOPSISHamnet – In the Name of the Son, directed by Chloé Zhao, is a deeply intimate exploration of loss, love, and artistic inspiration, told through the eyes of Agnes (Jessie Buckley), the wife of William Shakespeare (Paul Mescal).Set in rural 16th-century England, the film immerses us in the couple's everyday life as they raise their three children—Susanna (Bodhi Rae Breathnach) and the twins Judith and Hamnet (Olivia Lynes and Jacobi Jupe)—balancing the fragile harmony of family life against the demands of the outside world. When the untimely death of young Hamnet shatters the family, Agnes is forced to confront an overwhelming grief. Through her perceptive and deeply compassionate perspective, we witness the fracture that opens within the family and the struggle to piece together a life forever changed.This is not the story of Shakespeare as an isolated genius, but of a man profoundly marked by personal tragedy—one that would ultimately find its echo in his most celebrated work. In Shakespeare's time, the names Hamnet and Hamlet were often used interchangeably, and the film draws on this historical ambiguity to suggest that the loss of his son inspired the creation of the stage tragedy Hamlet. Yet at the heart of Hamnet stands Agnes, whose quiet strength, enduring love, and fierce resilience shape the emotional core of the story.The result is a moving meditation on what endures: love, memory, and the mysterious alchemy through which life and death are transformed into art.

Among her students is Alessio (Saul Nanni), a young man who uses his body to earn a few hundred euros and help support his mother (Jasmine Trinca), a supermarket cashier.A forbidden relationship develops between Gioia and Alessio—fragile, unexpected, and, in ways neither can fully explain, deeply necessary to them both.Yet Alessio's longing for social and personal redemption becomes a silent poison, preventing him from surrendering to Gioia's disarming tenderness. In the end, he destroys everything, erasing the only person who has ever truly loved him.

8:30 PM – LA SPOSA (The Bride) by Maggie Gyllenhaal – 126 min
SYNOPSISThe Bride!, directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal, is set in 1930s Chicago and reimagines the classic Frankenstein mythology through a bold, darkly romantic lens.The story follows the lonely Frankenstein's Monster (Christian Bale), who, longing for companionship, turns to the pioneering scientist Dr. Euphronious (Annette Bening) and asks her to create a partner for him.

Amid murder, possession, and overwhelming passion, the two lovers become the center of a whirlwind of chaos and desire unlike anything anyone could have foreseen.The film also explores the limits of science and the struggle against oppressive social conventions, revealing how love and the pursuit of freedom can challenge even the deepest-seated norms. Its richly decadent atmosphere provides the perfect backdrop for a story that blends elegance, horror, and rebellion, inviting audiences to reflect on the consequences of creation and on what it truly means to love.

9:30 PM – ORESTE by Alessandro Cedola – 20 min – Q&A with the director and producer Irene PochiniFollowed by RINO GAETANO – SEMPRE PIÙ BLU by Giorgio Verdelli – 90 min
SynopsisRino Gaetano – Sempre Più Blu, the documentary directed by Giorgio Verdelli, is a passionate journey through the life, music, and enduring legacy of Rino Gaetano, an artist who, more than almost anyone else, captured the contradictions of a country undergoing profound change.Through previously unseen archival footage, private notebooks, intimate interviews, and testimonies from friends, family members, and fellow artists, the film reconstructs the authentic portrait of a one-of-a-kind musician who always defied convention. From his early performances in Roman clubs to his breakthrough at the 1978 Sanremo Festival, where he appeared in a tuxedo and bow tie performing Gianna, to his rise as a cult singer-songwriter capable of blending rock, pop, satire, and poetry, creating generational anthems such as Ma il cielo è sempre più blu.Behind his sharp irony and provocative genius, however, lay a profound fragility—a sensitive soul that fame could never truly protect. His sudden death at the age of just thirty left a void that remains deeply felt, while his voice continues to resonate.From his sister Anna Gaetano and nephew Alessandro, to longtime friends such as Riccardo Cocciante, Danilo Rea, Shel Shapiro, and Edoardo De Angelis, as well as spiritual heirs including Brunori Sas, Lucio Corsi, and Giordana Angi, the documentary reveals the man behind the myth, the poet beneath the hat.Moving between satire and melancholy, from the iconic interview with Enzo Siciliano to his razor-sharp lyrics, the film captures the visionary power of an artist who could laugh in the face of tragedy and sing the truth with effortless lightness. A tribute to a genius whose voice continues to speak to the present.

Free admission while seats are available.
9:30 PM – SOTTO LE NUVOLE by Gianfranco Rosi – 114 min
SynopsisSotto le Nuvole, the documentary directed by Gianfranco Rosi, is set in a landscape suspended between history and modernity, at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, between Naples, Pompeii, and their surrounding areas. It is a timeless place where past and present merge in a profound and often dramatic interplay.Rosi explores this unique region, inhabited by communities that have lived for nearly three thousand years alongside the ever-present threat of the volcano—sometimes with acceptance, sometimes with defiance. Here, every daily gesture, every building, and every fragment of life seems to carry the weight of a memory that refuses to disappear.The film moves among archaeologists and scientists, artists and devotees, tourists and merchants, creating a continuous dialogue between ancient tragedies and contemporary vulnerabilities. Nothing truly separates what was from what is.The present is permeated by the past, and the volcano becomes a symbol of a natural force that marks the passage of time and shapes human lives, even when it remains silent. In this suspended landscape, caught between beauty and danger, the film portrays a humanity that endures, adapts, and continues searching for meaning, balanced between fate and hope.

Mostra Giardino Isola
2026-07-18 18:30 - 20:30 | Giardini Ravino (Via Provinciale Panza, 140b, 80075 Ischia NA, Italia)
On Saturday, July 18 at 8:30 PM, the exhibition Giardino Isola. Paesaggi, nature e relazioni by Tumu GaoGao, Ilaria Garzillo, and Martina Solli will be inaugurated at the Ravino Gardens, curated by Dr. Mariangela Catuogno, Director of Cultural Activities at the Ravino Gardens.
The exhibition activities promoted by the Ravino Gardens continue, as part of the 2026 programme, with selected artists invited to create works conceived both for presentation in the Moby Dick exhibition hall and as site-specific installations throughout the garden. The aim is to promote projects that place at the heart of artistic practice the idea of the Garden as a space for reflection on the delicate relationship between Human Beings and Nature, in a vision where all spaces contribute to narrating and stimulating visitors’ awareness of this theme.
The exhibition Giardino Isola. Paesaggi, nature e relazioni stems from the collaboration between artist Tumu GaoGao, who places her ceramic works along the garden path as archetypal forms and fragments of a Mediterranean imaginary connected to the island; illustrator Ilaria Garzillo, who creates through drawing sensitive maps capable of observing and narrating the relationships between places, nature, and landscape; and landscape designer Martina Solli, who uses dry vegetation as a design material, restoring its value as a form of permanence, memory, and landscape structure.
Together, the three artistic practices invite visitors to experience the garden as a complex organism—a place where nature, imagination, and matter coexist.
The exhibition Giardino Isola. Paesaggi, nature e relazioni brings together different materials and languages—ceramics, paper, and vegetation—heterogeneous elements that create an ecosystem of signs, forms, and presences.
Once again, Art and Landscape Architecture merge into a unified language within the spaces of the Ravino Gardens, a place for reflection, discovery, and enjoyment. https://eventi.ischia.it/en/events/intrattenimento/by-night/event/250540-mostra-giardino-isola
