On Wednesday, May 6th, Luciano Ligabue will be the first artist to perform at Milan's new Arena Unipol Dome, a venue set to become one of Italy's leading hubs for live music. The event marks the official opening of the Milan venue and stands as one of the most anticipated dates of the concert season.

The rocker from Emilia commented on the announcement on social media, describing the evening as a specially designed event: "I'm happy and honored to be able to inaugurate the Arena Milano with my music. I want it to be a special concert, and we'll do everything we can to make it so."

The show will start at 9 pm. The venue is located at Via Romualdo Bonfadini 148, in the eastern part of the city.
