The program offers a wide range of activities for all ages. Evenings begin at 7:00 PM, turning the area into an open-air stage. Music takes center stage with tributes to iconic Italian acts such as 883 and Zucchero, followed by the engaging rhythms of the 80s and the Summer Dance Tour. For families, the festival ensures a warm welcome with the presence of Prezzemolo, the famous Gardaland mascot, and the nightly baby dance.
