The skies over Fano are bursting with color: on May 1 and 2, 2026, “Un Mare di Aquiloni” returns to Lido di Fano, the festival that officially kicks off the spring season along the Marche coast. Professional kites, dazzling nighttime flights, workshops for children, music, and a closing DJ set on the main stage—a spectacular weekend that draws visitors from all over Italy every year.
What if, instead of traveling back and forth, you could wake up right in Fano, relaxed and ready to enjoy everything? Loft Verdemare is the perfect base for taking your time and savoring the event.
What's happening at Lido di Fano on May 1 and 2
“A Sea of Kites” is organized by Eventi Volanti under the patronage of the City of Fano and transforms Lido Beach into an open-air spectacle. The big new feature of the 2026 edition is the nighttime light shows, which make the sunset and evening on the Adriatic even more magical. The weekend wraps up on Saturday, May 2, with a DJ set on the main stage, featuring lights, music, and the last kites floating in the rosy sky.
An event for everyone: families with children, couples, enthusiasts, and anyone who’s simply curious. The kind of weekend you’ll remember.
