The magical August evenings of Calici di Stelle are back—the summer event by the Movimento Turismo del Vino that turns Italian wineries into dreamlike settings, this year with an even more special edition. From Friday, July 25 to Sunday, August 24, MTV wineries will become storytellers of an all-Italian love affair: the one between wine and authentic Neapolitan pizza.

For the first time ever, the producers of the Movimento will host master pizzaioli from across the country, thanks to a new partnership with AVPN—the association that has been promoting and safeguarding true Neapolitan pizza for over 40 years, with more than 1,000 certified pizzerias in 61 countries. These two ambassadors of Italian excellence, both deeply rooted throughout the national territory, have joined forces to celebrate Italy's rich food and wine heritage, through the unique cultural identities of each region.

The Calici di Stelle 2025 calendar is packed with activities to make the most of the summer season: from vineyard picnics to poolside aperitifs and candlelit dinners, all accompanied by live music. Many artists and performers will also take part, bringing their art among the vines through exhibitions, performances, and breathtaking shows. Some wineries will offer exclusive stargazing sessions in the vineyards, using telescopes and binoculars to marvel at the movements of the August sky, which—traditionally—is full of surprises. These will be complemented by storytelling moments dedicated to the legends and myths that speak of the ancient bond between constellations and agricultural practices—a relationship that has guided humankind since the dawn of time.

But there's more: creative workshops, photography exhibitions, treasure hunts, and fun cellar games designed to bring people together, ensuring enjoyment for both adults and kids. Wellness will also play a central role, with yoga and meditation sessions to tune into the sounds of nature, as well as hiking and cycling tours to explore the surroundings of each winery.

At Calici di Stelle, wine, music, nature, and astronomy come together to offer a one-of-a-kind experience, with group activities, romantic escapes, and guided tours with winemakers—perfect for those just beginning to discover the world of wine.
