Informations


Three days of events, shows, and community for one of the most anticipated gatherings in Southern Italy.

The Nerd Festival returns to Foggia for its tenth edition, scheduled from 22 to 24 May 2026 — an event that has become a true landmark for fans of comics, video games, cosplay, and pop culture, attracting thousands of visitors from all over Italy every year.

The 2026 edition will take place across several locations in the city: from the main stage in Piazza Cesare Battisti, along Corso Vittorio Emanuele and Via Dante, and extending to Palazzo Dogana, Cinema Cicolella, and the square by the Cathedral.

The Festival offers a rich and diverse program designed to engage audiences of all ages. Throughout the entire weekend (from morning until evening), visitors can immerse themselves in various themed areas:

Comics & Manga: publisher stands, meetings with authors, workshops, and presentations

Cosplay & Shows: contests, parades, and live performances

Gaming & E-sports: tournaments, gaming stations, and the latest news from the video game world

Main Stage: talks, shows, concerts, and special guests

Community Area: spaces dedicated to creators, YouTubers, and fans

What sets the Nerd Festival apart is its ability to combine entertainment and participation, creating an inclusive environment where every form of pop culture expression finds its place.


With over 300,000 total participants across past editions and hundreds of guests involved over the years, the event stands as one of the most important pop culture festivals in Southern Italy.

More than just a fair, it is a collective experience — a place to meet, share passions, and experience the city in a new way, through creativity and entertainment.
