FORMENTERA

THE BEGINNING OF A LOVE STORY......

Formentera was the beginning of everything.

Yes, my partners and I already had years of experience running venues across Italy.
But Formentera was not a “business move.”

It was a life choice.

The choice of a paradise that, for many years, gave us a home, a rhythm, a sense of belonging.

It gave us work, of course… but above all, it gave us real joy: friends, smiles, light nights, and that kind of energy that stays with you long after the season ends.

That’s where what we now call Cena Spettacolo was born.

Back then, it didn’t even have a name.
It was simply a dinner that, at some point, started to happen.

And at the heart of it all was someone we will never forget: Matteo Lotti.

With a guitar, endless passion, and a rare kind of energy, he was able to create a unique, unrepeatable atmosphere.

Formentera was our first experience… and perhaps one of the most beautiful.

It was home to countless friends, many VIPs, footballers, athletes, and people from the world of entertainment.

But there’s something else that always made us smile: with us, there was never any difference.

No ropes. No VIP areas. No “zones” with different prices.

Rigatoni has always been a place where, naturally and effortlessly, you could find yourself sitting next to an Olympic champion or a familiar face from TV… and live the night exactly as you lived it yourself: through toasts, songs, laughter, and that feeling of being in the right place, with the right people.

Formentera will always remain in our hearts.
And if you were there, we’re pretty sure a piece of it stayed with you too.
