Mare e Terra Fair 2026 in Gioia Tauro: three days of events, food and crafts on the seafront

Lungomare · Gioia Tauro, Costa Viola, Calabria

17 July 2026 – 19 July 2026

From 17 to 19 July 2026, the seafront of Gioia Tauro hosts the second edition of the Mare e Terra Fair, one of the most anticipated events of the local summer. For three days, the waterfront becomes a large route dedicated to local excellence, crafts, street trade, Southern Italian food and family entertainment.

The fair welcomes more than 100 exhibitors from Calabria, Sicily, Basilicata and Campania, giving residents, tourists and visitors the chance to discover typical products, handmade creations, local flavours and popular traditions that express the bond between sea, land and community.

The event includes street food, live music, a funfair area, shows and shared moments for all ages. It is an accessible summer event that helps promote the Gioia Tauro seafront and strengthens the city's role as a tourist destination on Calabria's Tyrrhenian coast.

Between sea, flavours, crafts and entertainment, the Mare e Terra Fair is a good opportunity to experience Gioia Tauro's waterfront, support local excellence and discover the character of the Piana in a festive atmosphere.
