Pettorano sul Gizio – La Serenata di Capodanno
Saturday 31 December 2022 @ 21:00 - Sunday 1 January 2023 @ 00:30 CET

Pettorano sul Gizio’s New Year’s Serenade (La Serenata di Capodanno) is back after 2 years and worth joining for anyone who loves to sing-in the New Year!
After the interruptions of the last 2 years, with a text by Marco Del Prete and the music of Michele Avolio, the song of good wishes for the new year will return to cheer the streets of Pettorano, as has been the case for almost a century. It’s a wonderful way to see in 2023, weave through the streets of Abruzzo’s only Bear Smart Community with a wonderful sing-along! This small town that is a borghi più belli d’Italia (Italy’s list of most beautiful villages) has a wonderful Ristorante Il Torchio that you could combine this very traditional and authentic New Year’s Eve event with!
For all those who want to accompany the concerto by singing in the choir, the rehearsal appointment is Thursday at 21.00 in the conference room of Palazzo Zannelli!
