Welcome to Cesena.co.uk the website promoting the town and suburbs of Cesena.
So many of the larger cities of Italy take first place when planning a short break or holiday trip, and smaller towns are overlooked. Cesena.co.uk is here to change that!
We would like you to see what Cesena has to offer visitors with its little hidden gems, delicious and high quality food, impecable service and beautiful locations to see and stay.
Cesena is a town full of surprises which has something for everyone:
-
Gastronomy - From the Street Food festivals where you can try and buy any of the foodstuffs from around the region which has a host of delightful traders selling their wares from virgin olive oil, salami, wines, cheeses and jams - it's never ending - to fine dining at a Castle restaurant, to eating authentic, thin, italian pizza with rocket topping outside in the summer evenings or even take-away crescione and piadina which is the region's traditional bread - it's a place where food standards and tastes are unbelievable.
-
Art & Culture - From visiting the local art galleries in the centre of the town there is always something on show from the beginner artist to the most famous of the region - To taking walks around the battlements of the hilltop fortress and daring to do the ghostwalk through the inside of the walls. To International photographic shows that are placed in many of the surrounding villages to getting a glimpse of the oldest library in Italy "La Biblioteca" - there's history, art and culture around every corner.
-
Shoppers - With a host of shops both traditional and designer there will definitely be something that catches your eye. Quaint small boutiques line the cobbled streets up to the main piazza where you can then grab a bargain when the market is here on Wednesdays, Saturdays and special occasion Sundays and not forgetting if you want to shop under one roof; there are 3 large shopping malls - it's a town where you can shop till you drop.
- Show Stoppers - Entertainment starts with a capital S for Show - from Argentinian Tango lessons with a buffet evening and show at a local theatre to dressing to the nines ready to watch a show at the regal 'Teatro Bonci', from listenting to International recitals or films during a culture season to sitting in street seats with the kids to watch an animated fables from the local theatre groups - there's always something going on and something not to miss.
-
Special Occassions - There is always something happening somewhere with special events throughout the year come rain or shine: From a market dedicated to the festival of chocolate in many shapes and forms in November to the major San Giovanni (Saint John's day) in July when market traders galore fill the streets with wares and fresh foodstuffs to taste or buy or if you have plenty of energy the traditional "notte bianca" (white night) is when the town stays open to 5am with shops, shows, live music, entertainment and animations for 4 days - our special events are occasions for everyone.
