Events in Ischia
Every memorable event begins with a place that feels right.
Some occasions deserve more than beautiful scenery. They deserve to be remembered for years to come.
Whether you are planning a wedding overlooking the Mediterranean, a corporate conference, a gala dinner, a milestone birthday or an intimate family celebration, choosing the right venue is the first step towards creating something truly unforgettable.
For more than sixty years, Gabbiano Beach has welcomed guests from Italy and around the world, helping them celebrate some of life's most important moments. Throughout the years, our philosophy has never changed: every event deserves the same care, attention and dedication, regardless of its size.
Located directly on Citara Beach in Forio, on the western coast of Ischia, Gabbiano Beach offers one of the island's most spectacular settings. Here, the sea becomes part of every celebration. As the sun slowly disappears into the Mediterranean, your guests experience something that simply cannot be recreated anywhere else.
Our venue comfortably hosts events for up to 200 guests, while larger celebrations of up to 300 people can be accommodated by extending the event spaces onto the beach with dedicated structures. Every project is entirely bespoke, from the layout of the venue to the menu, entertainment and every detail in between.
We know that planning an event often begins months before the actual day. For this reason we personally assist every client throughout the planning process, organising meetings in person or via video call, offering practical advice, sharing our local knowledge and helping coordinate every aspect of the experience.
Many of our guests are travelling to Ischia for the first time. We are happy to recommend trusted hotels, private transfers, photographers, videographers, musicians, florists and other carefully selected professionals with whom we have collaborated successfully for many years.
Our greatest satisfaction is not simply hosting beautiful events. It is seeing our guests leave knowing that everything unfolded exactly as they had imagined.

Every celebration is different because every story is different.
Over the years we have organised hundreds of events for couples, families, companies and international guests, always adapting our spaces and our services to their individual needs.
Whether you dream of an elegant dinner overlooking the sea, an exclusive private celebration, a corporate convention or a wedding ceremony directly on the beach, our team will work alongside you to create an event that reflects your vision.
