Since 2014, every year the Italian Ministry of Culture designates a city on its territory as manifesto / symbol of Italian heritage and 2024 will be the year of Pesaro.

The aim of the project is to make the hidden national treasures visible to a wider public, encouraging their promotion and growth.

"The Nature of Culture"

This has been the opportunity to outline its trajectory based on the relationship between culture, nature and technology.

Pesaro 2024: art, culture and music 

The program is full of events and initiatives, it combines tradition and innovation, local and international artists.

As a reminder of these values, the city has installed a luminous crystal sphere, the Biosphere, in a sort of dialogue with the already existing Large Sphere (aka the Pomodoro Ball) made in bronze by the sculptor Arnaldo Pomodoro.

Along with the already vivid seasons of the Rossini Theater and Sperimentale Theater, during the whole year, the city of Pesaro will host exhibitions, conferences and live performances.
