Vasco Rossi is speeding toward the 2026 live tour, getting into the thick of rehearsals and starting to shape the structure of the show. From the headquarters in Puglia, the second day of work with the band marks a first concrete step forward, shared directly with fans: “And here we are! On the second day of rehearsals. Yesterday we broke the ice. Today we looked at each other … we recognized each other .. So we've already put together the first two or three songs of this year's extraordinary setlist, which will be… unpredictable, unreachable, unattainable, unequivocal, inescapable, extraordinary and amazing”.
The mention of the "setlist" immediately grabs fans' attention, with every detail interpreted as a clue about the song choices. Anticipation is also building on social media, where the post has racked up thousands of interactions.
The Emilian artist himself has recently reiterated the approach adopted in recent years: a stable core of songs alongside a rotation that changes from tour to tour. "Every year with a new setlist, with some fixed songs and others that alternate", he explained, hinting at a repertoire in constant evolution.
The preparation phase is once again taking place at Cromie in Castellaneta, by now a fixed point in the organization of the Emilian singer-songwriter's live shows. This is where the show is taking shape, set to debut on May 30 at the Romeo Neri stadium in Rimini with the opening date, before moving on to Ferrara, Olbia, Bari, Ancona and Udine.
Here is the full tour schedule:
At the same time, Rossi keeps returning to the memory of Modena Park, resurfacing images and figures from that day. In one of his most recent posts he writes: "These are my people. This is Rock. You are the Better World!!". A line that puts the bond with the audience and the collective dimension of the event back at the center.
At the same time, he looks ahead and makes his position clear on the possibility of repeating that experience: "Don't ask me to do it again... For the 50th anniversary since the story began... I want to throw a different kind of party... for far more people... more than 500,000... and one that lasts more than one night".
