Full Moon Festival

The full moon in high summer marks the occurrence of this three-day festival, steeped in folklore, music and tradition. The Riva is lit by torchlight, giving a timeless ambience to the nighttime fish market and gastro-offers. Fresh tuna, sardines and shellfish can be bought straight from the boat, with dried meats, cheeses, traditional dishes and drinks available from vendors at the side. Music and dancers in traditional costume at times accompany proceedings.
