- The first time a music festival was held in the Ligurian port of San Remo was in 1951. Over the course of more than half a century the Festival of Sanremo , which takes place at the end of February, has become essential viewing, followed by up to twenty million television viewers every year. Many of the best-known Italian songs and singers of the past sixty years became known through San Remo, from Domenico Modugno's worldwide hit "Nel blu dipinto di blu" (Volare) to the hits of Eros Ramazzotti.

- A glass of wine (vino) is an essential part of the Italian mealtime. Italians are estimated to drink 70 liters per head every year. In the past, due to the competition from other countries and the lack of an official classification system, Italian wine was not drunk much abroad. These days, thanks to the recovery of old grape varieties and a revival of traditional manual harvesting methods, Italy has become a great producer and exporter both of white wines - such as vernaccia di San Gimignano, verduzzo, Sardinian vermentino, and red - barolo , barbera , chianti , nero d'avola , and carignano del sulcis . The law of 1992 introduced a degree of clarity into wine classification, with wines being divided into the following categories: vino da tavola, where no indication of origin is given; IGT or Indicazione Geografica Tipica; DOC, Denominazione d'Origine Controllata; and DOCG, Denominazione d'Origine Controllata e Garantita.
