A sparkle of lights and colors that will illuminate the towns of the Coast. Which for the occasion will be transformed into a natural stage that will give life to an extraordinary fireworks display.
The rugged coastline, sheer cliffs and crystal clear waters create a perfect setting for the fireworks. But that’s not all, the town illuminations, candles lit on boats and lights reflected in the sea also contribute to the magical and evocative atmosphere.
A spectacle that of the ferragosto fireworks is absolutely not to be missed, not only for those who spend their vacations on the Coast, but also for local citizens.

Next, it will be Amalfi’s turn, which will light up the entire city with sparkling lights and colors at around 11:30 p.m. The fireworks will be launched from the Molo Pennello, near the port of Amalfi.

Fireworks also on the Sorrento Coast
But in addition to these coastal towns this year there is another one positioned on the opposite side of the Amalfi Coast, also overlooking the sea.
We are talking about the most important city on the Sorrento coast, Sorrento. Here, too, in the setting of the Gulf of Naples at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, a show of brilliant colors will again be held.
It will begin around 11:30 pm. And for about an hour the extraordinary display of fireworks will keep the thousands of people who will crowd the streets of the city with bated breath.
Everything will take place in front of the Sorrento shoreline where three floating platforms will be moored. The pontoons, however, will be deployed in such a way as to ensure that the entire city and even those overlooking from vantage points in the other municipalities of the peninsular area can enjoy the exciting spectacle.
