THE LARGEST FILM FESTIVAL IN ITALY ENTIRELY DEDICATED TO COMEDY!

In the heart of the Italian summer, amidst the charm of Puglia, the Comedy Film Fest shines as a premier cinema and entertainment festival. Over five days, the festival features four days of film screenings in a beachside movie theater, culminating in a spectacular awards gala on the final day. The festival showcases Italian and international comedies, complemented by music and entertainment.
