Event details

The Roccella Summer Festival welcomes one of the most recognisable voices in Italian music: Arisa, headlining a concert on 21 August 2026 at the Teatro al Castello in Roccella Ionica, a striking open-air arena overlooking the Ionian coast of Calabria. A singer-songwriter and performer who blends pop sensibility with vocal intensity and a strong stage presence, Arisa brings a live show that retraces the most significant moments of her career, mixing iconic tracks with new sounds. It is an evening devoted to live music in a unique setting, between the sea of the Riviera dei Gelsomini and the historic charm of the castle overlooking the village.

The concert and the setlist

The evening runs through the hits that have marked Arisa's career, from Sincerità, the song that first brought her wide recognition, to La notte, and Controvento, the track that won her the Sanremo Festival in 2014. Alongside these classics is room for her newer work, including Magica Favola and other unreleased songs from her recent album Foto Mosse, performed live during this summer tour. The result is a concert that alternates emotion and lightness, built around the artist's voice and interpretation.

Roccella Ionica and the Riviera dei Gelsomini

Roccella Ionica, in the province of Reggio Calabria, is one of the most distinctive towns of the Riviera dei Gelsomini, the stretch of southern Ionian coast known for its beaches and for the tradition of harvesting jasmine flowers. The concert takes place at the Teatro al Castello, the open-air arena set at the foot of the rock that towers over the town and the regular backdrop for the festival's summer events. Visitors coming to Calabria for the occasion can pair the evening with a holiday among sea and villages: here you can find more events in Calabria throughout the summer.
