The 31st edition of Ethnos, the travelling world-music festival directed by Gigi Di Luca and organised by La Bazzarra, made a stop in Castellammare di Stabia on Thursday 17 September 2026.

The Castellammare programme offered two performances in one evening at the Church of Gesù e Maria, Via del Gesù 62. Admission was priced at €5.

Two concerts, one evening

The evening opened at 20:30 with Bronagh Slevin. Her voice-and-cello performance combines electronic, downtempo and alt-folk influences with Mediterranean and Irish musical references.

The second performance followed at 21:30 and featured Catalan singer Magalí Sare and bassist Manel Fortià.

Part of a four-day programme

The Castellammare double bill was part of a broader Ethnos programme running from 17 to 20 September across Castellammare di Stabia, Portici and San Giorgio a Cremano.

Ethnos is identified in festival coverage as a travelling world-music festival organised by La Bazzarra and supported by regional and cultural institutions.

Why Castellammare mattered in the Ethnos schedule

For readers following the festival across the Bay of Naples and Vesuvian area, the Castellammare stop opened the 17–20 September sequence alongside events in Portici and San Giorgio a Cremano. Checking the full multi-city programme helps place the two Gesù e Maria performances within the wider edition rather than treating them as a standalone concert night.
