Whilst there is a famous Teatro Verdi in Florence, there’s also a Teatro Verdi in Pisa, too.

So if a party is what you’re looking for, head to this very local festival one of the best things to do in Pisa in summer, that’s for sure. It’s not just the different music you’ll get to see – from reggae to DJ sets – there’s also a bunch of places to get food and even a bar, too. This part of the river comes alive with music and merriment all summer long, with different live acts taking place on different days of the week. From late May to September there’s a music festival called Arno Vivo, which takes place near the Victoria Bridge. One of the best things to do in Pisa at night is to make a beeline for the Arno River. Party the night away along the banks of the Arno Vivo We would definitely recommend having a walk around at night – it will feel almost like a dream.

Without the crowds, the sights are free of selfie stick-wielding day-trippers and yours to behold as they’re lit up, making for a pretty spectacular, even magical, scene. So after you’ve had your fill of whatever local snacks and treats you feel like eating, walking around the city after dark is actually one of the best things to do in Pisa at night. Most visitors to the city will be gone before sunset, others will be in bed after eating at some touristy pizza place. Everybody wants to see the Leaning Tower of Pisa, right? So a lot of people come here on day trips.
