"The Vecchioni concert concludes the program of shows at the Ivan Graziani Amphitheater desired and planned by the Conoci Administration , with the support of the Alghero Foundation and the Department of Tourism and Culture, together with numerous private partners. After 10 years of total abandonment by the left, the center-right has returned the external space of the Amphitheater to the city, renewing its natural vocation, and bringing artists of national and international importance back to the city." This is how the former Councilor for Tourism Alessandro Cocco , now group leader of the Brothers of Italy in the City Council, comments on the conclusion of the Alguer Summer Festival. "With over 15 dates and a total number of spectators that - pending official data - seems to double that of last year , the program of concerts spread throughout the summer months represents an important tourist and promotional product. A major public and private investment that generates significant economic benefits for the entire city and for a long period of time, avoiding concentrating everything in a few days for hit-and-run tourism, as happens with other formats. What is now coming to an end is therefore a record concert season in every aspect", underlines Cocco, thanking all the workers and the team of professionals who worked on the festival.

"Now it is essential to continue on this line of action , keeping the Maria Pia site alive, in order to avoid a new abandonment, planning the next season right away. Equally important, and closer, is the appointment of the "Cap d'Any," the New Year's Eve of Alghero, which over the years has become the New Year's Eve of Sardinia. Last year Alghero was the queen city of attendance, thanks to the choice of a programming made well in advance, a national promotion and a collaboration with the private sector. That result was also the fruit of a convinced investment made by the center-right administration. I am sure that the sensitivity of the current board of directors of the Foundation will not be lacking, which I hope will be adequately supported by the municipal administration ", concludes the group leader of the Brothers of Italy.
