During the summer of 2024 the cultural and recreational center realized on the banks of the Marecchia river by the Sorridolibero association, led by the singer-songwriter Sergio Casabianca, presents a program, also carried out in collaboration with the Rimini Classica association, which ranges from concerts to theater in all its forms: music, cabaret, dance performances, festivals etc..

This is the music festival, a thematic section of the Sagra Musicale Malatestiana, for new sounds, that this year will not only accompany the summer as per tradition, but will offer concerts and special events from July until late November, at Corte degli Agostiniani and Teatro Galli. 
Ludovico Einaudi's music opens the festival.
The first stage runs through five appointments that illuminate a musical universe with a neo-classical minimalist imprint: Ludovico Einaudi (7 July), a tribute to Ryuichi Sakamoto (8 July), Hania Rani (9 July) and the OHT company, led by director Filippo Andreatta with two works from musical theatre (30 and 31 October). The second follows paths contaminated by multiple influences, resonating with the echoes of the first path, with both cultured and popular crossings, acoustic, electronic and vocal experimentation, lyricism and extreme sounds: Eklectric Duo (23 July), John De Leo and the Grande Abarasse Orchestra (3 September), Fabrizio Bosso with Andrea Lucchi, Julian Oliver Mazzariello and Rimini Classica (27 September), ending with the duo Teho Teardo and Blixa Bargeld (22 November). 

The Palazzo del Fulgor - Fellini Museum - is hosting an extraordinary exhibition dedicated to the Santarcangelo painter Pino Boschetti (1944 - 2022), who, through his images, told the stories and people of his native Romagna with imaginative irony. The monographic exhibition consists of 92 oil paintings and 30 preparatory drawings, in which he immortalised moments of life and landscapes that are an integral part of the emotional and identity heritage of Romagna. Boschetti, a self-taught artist and keen observer of his country's daily life, takes us on a visual journey that recounts the reality of Romagna with irony and gentleness, bringing out a poetic style made up of everyday details and dreamlike visions.
The exhibition is part of a larger cultural project, ‘Lingue di confine’, dedicated to art in dialect, which explores the profound connections between the mother tongue and artistic expressions through poetry, theatre and painting.
Opening on Saturday 3 August at 6 p.m.

The opening of the symphonic concert series (1 September) with a renowned ensemble such as the Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam conducted by Myung-Whun Chung, is one of great prestige.

A great variety of offers in the chamber music cycle hosted at the Teatro Galli is very varied. It begins with the Italian Youth Guitar Orchestra (5 September) conducted by Pierluigi Colonna and featuring soprano Ilona Mataradze, and moves on to 16th-century polyphonic music by the Tallis Scholars (20 September) and the music of Johannes Brahms and Paul Hindemith (23 September) with clarinettist Claudio Conti and a string quartet. The great pianist Beatrice Rana returns to the Galli (2 October) as does the WunderkammerOrchestra conducted by Carlo Tenan (18 October).

Finally, the theatre opens up to young talent (15 December) with a recital by the very young pianist Giacomo Menegardi, the latest winner of the prestigious Venice Prize. 

Andrea Shinigami's look at Rimini is everything we do not expect about this city.
It shows a body, made up of people and streets, of people and the sea, caught from one of the many perspectives of which an uninhibited eye is capable; as if Rimini were not Rimini, as if it were something else: all the Other that is everywhere, all the Beyond.
And so this explains the reasons for the title 44°3'27 ‘N 12°33'55 ’E 
No longer ‘Rimini’ but its coordinates on a globe, as if a child's finger had casually pointed to that spot. Rimini becomes what was found under that finger, looked at with the same sincere attention as one who discovers a place for the first time, as if to say that wonder and the magnificent can be found wherever a finger chooses to point.
Inauguration and presentation of the art book: Saturday 7 September 2024, 5 p.m.

SCAT-ti JAZZ, the rediscovered photographic archive on show at the Galleria dell'Immagine.
On 1 June 1980, when jazz legend Chet Baker took the stage in Marecchia Park, Davide Minghini's camera lens was there to capture timeless moments and images. Those shots, together with photos never brought to light of memorabilia jazz concerts organised in Rimini and of musicians who passed through the Riviera's historic venues such as the Paradiso, the Embassy, the Altro Mondo and the Grand Hotel, now form a path of images in which to rediscover that Rimini of the ‘dolce vita’, loved by so many musicians who lived it and sang it, making it a compulsory stop on their international tours.
The European Song Festival in Riccione with Gorni Kramer, the concerts at the Paradiso with the American trumpeter Chet Baker, Romano Mussolini, Tony Scott and Cicci Santucci, up to the great concert in Piazza Cavour by Giorgio Gaslini, Henghel Gualdi, Caterina Valente, Giulio Capiozzo, Henry Salvador and Nicola Arigliano, are just some of the rediscovered characters that can be seen in the exhibition.
The idea for this exhibition, curated by Federico Tassani and Cristina Vitri - @Rimini Jazz Club, arose from research on Chet Baker and the Rimini he often frequented, which led to the rediscovery of his photograph, taken at a concert in Marecchia Park. Hence the idea of searching through the Minghini archive for photos of jazz concerts organised in Rimini and of musicians who have passed through the Riviera.
Inauguration on Friday 13 September at 5 p.m.
