Armonie del Mediterraneo Festival is an international cultural project conceived and promoted by the Municipality of Lecce, with the scientific and organizational support of the Agenzia per il Patrimonio Culturale Euromediterraneo.
The festival was created to celebrate the Mediterranean as a space of encounter and cooperation, transforming Lecce and the Salento region into a permanent laboratory of intercultural dialogue and creative innovation.
At the heart of the project lies the belief that the Mediterranean is not merely a geographical border, but a bridge of civilizations — a sea that unites peoples, languages, and traditions.
Armonie del Mediterraneo celebrates this richness by building an inclusive and multidisciplinary cultural path where music, arts, knowledge, and storytelling intertwine to foster mutual understanding and cooperation.
The festival takes shape as a multidisciplinary platform that interlaces art, science, thought, innovation, and sustainability.
Rooted in its territory yet open to the world, the project aims to build a lasting cultural ecosystem where ideas, sounds, and traditions are connected by an invisible thread crossing the Mediterranean.
In a global context marked by divisions and conflict, the festival stands as a tool of unity — strengthening, through culture, the sense of belonging to one great Mediterranean community.
Five events marked the beginning of Armonie del Mediterraneo, exploring the themes of light, poetry, memory, sustainability, and Mediterranean thought.
Encounters that traced the festival’s first routes, bringing into dialogue generations, territories, and traditions.
Autumn Harmonies | 17 - 26 ottobre 2025
The events held between July and October represented a journey of great symbolic and cultural value, exploring key themes such as light, poetry, memory, sustainability, and Mediterranean thought.
These moments became the tesserae of a mosaic of cultural experiences — intertwining languages, disciplines, and perspectives, and bringing together generations, territories, and traditions.
A path that has given concrete form to the vision of Armonie del Mediterraneo: that of a living, shared, and creative Mediterranean, where differences become bridges of knowledge and harmonies of the future.
