Comedians born in Riccione

Riccione is a smart seaside resort on the Romagna stretch of the Adriatic coast, built around wide sandy beaches, stylish shopping streets and a nightlife that runs late through the summer. Italian holidaymakers have kept coming back for generations, filling its clubs and seafront promenades each season for the beach culture as much as anything else.

A resort this crowded and festive makes an easy home for live entertainment, and Italy's growing stand-up scene has followed, with venues here booking touring comics through the peak months. Comedian Pietro Paolo Cevoli, born in Riccione, is part of that same comic tradition.
