The traditional and ancient boats "Vela al Terzo", which for centuries have sailed the Adriatic sea, arrive in the tourist port of Rimini on Saturday 7th September. The characteristic of these boats is a rig of two flagpoles and a trapezoid shaped sail. In the ancient time these sails, always colored and decorated with symbols and figures, marked the harbor and the family of which the boat belonged. A unique show where ancient local maritime traditions are revived.
It is a cultural and enogastronomic event and an occasion for people of all ages to get to know the crews always ready for any explanation.
During the festival there will be a refreshment point where it is possible to taste blue fish, the traditional "Rustida", accompanied by piadina freshly prepared by the volunteers of the Association Vele al Terzo Rimini, with zero-kilometer salad and DOC wines from the hinterland of Rimini.
Music lovers will not miss the traditional music corner at the rhythm of Romagna Mia or on the music by Carlos Santana.
The event will be held in partnership with "Basta Plastica in Mare", the association with the goal of "Romagna Plastic Free 2023", informing visitors about protecting the sea, freeing it from plastic. Therefore the provisioning will be strictly ecological, in compostable materials.
