Ciao Ragazzi! Festa D’Italia and 2026 FIFA World Cup Final Celebration welcomes guests on Saturday, July 18, through Sunday, July 19, 2026, to Spencerport Fireman’s Field for a festival rooted in Italian-American heritage.
Founded by Rochester natives, Andrew and Domenico Colaprete, Ciao Ragazzi! showcases the flavors, music, and artistry of Italian culture. Through local partnerships with Rochester-area businesses, artists, and cultural organizations, as well as global brands like Aperol Spritz and JetBlue Airways, this inaugural celebration aims to bring the community together through a shared heritage enjoyed by so many in Monroe County.
Throughout the weekend, attendees are invited to gather along the Erie Canal in a piazza-style setting. Guests can enjoy exclusive experiences, including live music, traditional Italian games, a 2026 FIFA World Cup Final Celebration, food demonstrations, and 21+ beverage options. The event promises something for the entire family.
Local favorites Forno Tony, Yeah Baby Bakes, and Capone’s Italian Eatery will offer exclusive menu items, as well as a refreshing Aperol Spritz station sponsored by Aperol.
On Saturday, the festival stage will host local performers Allegro, Incapaci di Contare, and DJ Al Galelli. The first day will conclude with a community game of Super Tombola (Italian bingo), with prizes from JetBlue Airways and QB Cucina, including a chance to win a pair of round-trip tickets anywhere JetBlue flies, an array of artisanal pasta tools and kitchenware, and much more.
Ciao Ragazzi! Festa D’Italia will culminate on Sunday, July 19, with a 2026 FIFA World Cup Final Celebration on a 16-foot LED screen. The FIFA World Cup Final Celebration will begin at 3:00PM.
