The New Year's Concert is back in the large square overlooking the winter sea in the shadow of the Grand Hotel so dear to Fellini, with Biagio Antonacci's live performance. The concert, the highlight of the rich programme of events 'Rimini, the world's longest New Year's Eve, will be an opportunity for all fans to sing along with their beloved artist, retracing, through a setlist designed especially for 31 December in Rimini, songs that have marked Antonacci's thirty-year career.
Unmissable, at the stroke of midnight, is the fireworks display over the sea that will see the Rimini sky 'light up' with evocative multi-coloured embroidery.
The celebrations on 31 December will then move from the sea to the old town centre with the scattered’ New Year’s Eves celebrations including shows, DJ sets, concerts, and unique events spread throughout the city's identity sites, which will be transformed for one night into extraordinary stages for events of great evocative power.

A spectacle of fireworks, lights and sounds sets Castel Sismondo alight.
A unique moment that puts the Malatesta Castle at the centre of a magic performance that will take us into the New Year amidst cascades of fireworks, coloured trails and flames and intermittent fountains in various colours, with shapes and effects synchronised to the time of music, ready to thrill the public on the most eagerly awaited night of the year. The show will be performed with suggestive choreographies and special new effects on the square in front of the Fortress and on the castle itself.
Two shows are scheduled at 00.30 and 02.00.
