The open air opera at Macerata and the Rossini festival in Pesaro.

The open air opera at Macerata and the Rossini festival in Pesaro.

 



Macerata, the provincial capital of Le Marche, is approximately 40 kilometres from Sei Camini, and is surrounded by the Marches loveliest countryside.
Fans of both opera and ballet flock to Macerata for its annual "Stagione Lirica" held at the Sferisterio in July and August which is second only to Verona as Italy's best open air venue.

The Sferisterio was built at the end of the 19th. Century as a sports venue for a local ball game but a century later it was realised it had great acoustics so it became an open air opera "theatre" and, as a neo-classical monument, is among the best in Italy.
Other venues for music and opera are Fabriano, Urbino, Fano and at Loreto, where an international choir festival takes place in April and the famous Rossini Opera festival in Pesaro in August.
