Porto Santa Margherita di Caorle hosts the first edition on the Venetian coast of “CALICI DI STELLE” on Saturday, August 1, an annual national event promoted by the Movimento Turismo del Vino that animates wineries and Italian territories every summer with tastings, meetings, and initiatives dedicated to wine culture and the promotion of gastronomic excellence.
The event, scheduled for Saturday, August 1 from 7:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m., will take place at Piazzale Portesin, a key location in the famous seaside resort of the Alto Adriatico, known for its imposing marina and as a reference point for European boating. In addition to its wide beaches, Porto Santa Margherita offers state-of-the-art services and a tranquil atmosphere, ideal for a vacation focused on relaxation, just a few minutes from the historic center of the fishing village of Caorle, a prestigious international tourist and cultural destination.
On the evening of Friday, July 31, the accommodation facilities and participating venues will propose “Find Your Star”, a welcoming and animated moment that will accompany the anticipation of the main event. Guests will be able to participate in dedicated dinners and aperitifs, enjoying moments of togetherness and discovery of the territory, in preparation for the night of Calici di Stelle on Saturday, August 1, when a series of tasting booths, alongside other local realities, will allow the public to get to know and taste the regional wine excellence, all accompanied by artistic and musical entertainment capable of providing moments of celebration and emotion.
CALICI DI STELLE 2026 is the perfect combination of wine, stars, and conviviality, one of the most awaited and beloved events by wine lovers. Calici di Stelle is the experience that celebrates the connection between the allure of the universe and the passion for wine, transforming some of Italy's most enchanting locations into true stages under the stars. Through tastings of quality wines, meetings with producers, artistic performances, and cultural moments, enthusiasts will have the opportunity to discover the wine excellence and the richness of the territories that express them.
For this first edition, the common thread will be sustainability, also understood as the promotion of mindful drinking and the enhancement of the entire wine supply chain: from the territory—not only vineyard but also landscape, culture, and community—up to the glass.
The initiative is promoted by the Movimento Turismo del Vino Veneto and realized in collaboration with local entities, organized and promoted by Eleganza Veneta, which is committed to the cultural and tourist enhancement of wine and local excellences.
