Mazara del Vallo
Mezzo Festival 2025
On 25 and 26 July 2025, Mezzo Festival returns to Mazara del Vallo, a cultural and musical event that aims to offer a new perspective on the Mediterranean. Organised by Mezza APS, a regional social promotion association, the festival will take place in the evocative Giardino dell’Emiro, a 6,000-square-metre urban park that will host two days of music and dialogue.
Mezzo Festival seeks to redefine Southern Italy—not as a periphery of Europe, but as a new cultural and entrepreneurial centre. A music festival, but also a platform for discussion on key issues such as innovation, entrepreneurship, culture and tourism. The musical line-up includes urban and contemporary sounds, from European rap and trap to Mediterranean and Maghreb rhythms, with non-stop live acts, DJ sets and performances from 6:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m.

Mezzo Festival is the initiative of a group of young people—some who have returned after living abroad, others who have stayed, and some who dream of coming back—committed to creating the conditions for the next generations to choose to stay, rather than being forced to leave.
Because culture is not just entertainment, but a driver of change.
Because the Mediterranean can be central again.
Because the South is ready for a revolution.
