Portanuova wrote the next chapter of music! From September 19 to 21, the district buzzed with energy during the Portanuova Music Fest, the big event in collaboration with Openstage. Four stages nestled among the district’s skyscrapers will set the scene to discover the best up-and-coming talents in the Italian music scene.

The lineup? Carl Brave, Cantafinoadieci (Anna Castiglia, Francamente, Rossana De Pace, Irene Buselli, Cheriach Re), Sarafine, Kharfi, DJ Niika, Masamasa, Funky Lemonade, Vaeva, Diorama, Dario Comparini, Chiara Cami, Matilde Caressa, Cactus, Sidy, D!PS, Canzoni al Telefono, and many more.

Three days of live music, nightly DJ sets, inspiring talks with major record labels, interactive activities, and plenty of surprises. The festival kicked off on Friday evening with an exclusive aperitivo at Tripstillery and Panino Giusto in Piazza Alvar Aalto, paired with the explosive DJ sets of Kharfi and Niika (6:00–9:00 PM). And the party didn’t stop—every evening there were DJ sets from 6:30 to 9:00 PM.

Among the most fun experiences, a very special Tarot corner for personalized listening tips, with readers like Eugenio Cesaro (Eugenio in Via di Gioia), Foma Fomic, Diorama, Anna Castiglia, Rossana De Pace, Gillet, and D!PS.
