BirraFranca

BirraFranca returns to Forlì to celebrate the beginning of summer with one of the city's most anticipated events. From June 9-13, 2026, the A. Giulianini Municipal Sports Complex in Villafranca transforms into a vibrant gathering place where sports, gastronomy, and entertainment intertwine across five evenings filled with joy and solidarity. Organized by Villafranca Sports Group ASD with the support of prestigious local partners, the festival represents an important opportunity to support amateur sports activities in the area, keeping alive the community traditions that characterize this historic Forlì district. Among the main attractions are the food stands featuring authentic Romagna cuisine specialties: passatelli in broth, ragù tortellini, piadina with fossa cheese and Parma cured ham, accompanied by fried crescioni and other traditional delicacies. Beer enthusiasts will discover a curated selection of local and international craft beers, while live music each evening sets the atmosphere with artists and bands ranging from traditional repertoire to contemporary music. A dedicated entertainment area for children with games and recreational activities completes the family-friendly offering. Every evening from 7 PM onward, the sports complex opens its doors with completely free admission, making BirraFranca accessible to the entire Forlì community and visitors from out of town. A perfect opportunity to spend convivial evenings outdoors, savor local specialties, and support amateur sports. BirraFranca is not just a festival, but a genuine moment of solidarity and sharing that embodies the most authentic values of Romagna.
