The engaging summer schedule of the 'theater under the stars' of Santa Margherita di Pula restarts with four major events in the open space inaugurated in 2016 thanks to the intuition of Lorenzo Giannuzzi, patron of Forte Village.
Its varied and top-level programming, an extraordinary location, immersed in the magical beauty of the south-west coast and its unique atmosphere are the elements that have allowed the Forte Arena to establish itself as one of the most prestigious and appreciated destinations for live entertainment in the island landscape.
The reconfirmation also arrives in 2023 with an exceptional program that ranges from author music by Tiziano Ferro and Gigi D'Alessio, to the unmistakable irony of Checco Zalone, passing through the timeless musical with the fascinating story of Belle and the Beast .
The highly anticipated opening is with Tiziano Ferro, Sunday 16 July at 21.30, a live that has been desired for years given the two previous cancellations due to covid.
The extraordinary Italian singer-songwriter, who has conquered millions of fans all over the world, will take the stage of the Forte Arena for an unforgettable evening, unique in Sardinia and strongly desired to please those who had twice hoped to attend his concert.

Saturday 29 July, always at 21.30, space for Gigi D'Alessio with "Dove c'è il Sole Tour".
The concert, also in this case the only stop on the island, is the new live journey that will bring the Neapolitan artist to the stages of the main summer arenas.
A few days ago millions of viewers followed him live on Rai1 with an amazing show in Piazza del Plebiscito in his native Naples.
At the Forte Arena, thanks to a lineup that includes over 30 years of successes, the Neapolitan singer-songwriter will embrace the audience with the great passion that distinguishes him to sing his most loved songs together: from historical songs including "Never give up", "The path of the age", "Mon amour", "Quanti amori", "Como suena el corazon", "Non dirgli mai", up to the most recent ones such as "The first star", "Welcome love", "We due”, “L'amore”, “Come me”, “Mentre a vita se ne va”, and many others.

Beloved characters from this classic tale will perform in an immersive and atmospheric show, where music, dance and breathtaking scenery will blend together to create an unforgettable theatrical experience.
The musical, loosely based on the tale of Jeanne-Marie Leprince De Beaumont, staged by the "Compagnia dell'Ora", will be an exciting journey through a new story of love and adventure, with an unexpected epilogue, which will conquer the hearts of great and little ones.
Text and direction are by Luca Cattaneo, music by Enrico Galimberti, while choreography, costumes and sets are respectively by Silvia de Petri, Silvia Pedretti and Fabrizio Cattaneo.
The closure will be with the incomparable genius of laughter Checco Zalone and his hilarious "Amore + Iva Tour" on the bill on Saturday 12 August at 21.
One of the most kaleidoscopic artists and loved by the Italian public, the famous actor is preparing to amaze Sardinia with a spectacular, totally new show, written with Sergio Maria Rubino and Antonio Iammarino and produced by Arcobaleno Tre and MZL.
Eleven years after the "Resto Umile World Tour" and after breaking all the records in the history of Italian cinema, the Apulian artist will stop at the Forte Arena with an extraordinary one-year tour that debuted in Florence last year thanks to the general organization of Lucio and Niccolò Presta.
Music, stories, imitations, parodies and the extraordinary irony of an authentic leader of the new Italian comedy promise a memorable evening considering that Zalone arrives on the island for the first time with a theatrical show.
