The new "Vasco Live 2026" tour confirms an already well-established pattern for the singer-songwriter from Zocca: sky-high demand, a doubled schedule and tickets sold out well in advance. Vasco Rossi's summer tour once again shapes up as one of the key events of the Italian live season. The organizational machine is operating on an imposing scale, with every date already doubled up and sold out for about a year now. It's a figure that cements the Emilian rocker's status as the only Italian artist able to sustain, year after year, a tour of this size, while keeping production standards high and audience response constant.
The tour will kick off on May 30 in Rimini with the traditional "opening night", preceded on May 29 by the soundcheck reserved for fan club members, by now a fixture for the audience closest to the stage.
Among the most notable stops are a few logistical firsts: a debut at the Parco Urbano Giorgio Bassani in Ferrara and a double date at the Olbia Arena in Olbia on June 12 and 13. The return to Sardinia carries symbolic weight, given the artist's absence from the island since 1983, when he toured in support of the album "Bollicine".
The schedule also includes a return to the Stadio del Conero in Ancona after four years and a stop at the Stadio San Nicola in Bari, by now a fixed presence on the tour circuit. The closing shows are set for Udine, where the artist hasn't performed in 18 years and where two dates have already been scheduled.
Radio Italy and Rai Radio 2 will follow the tour as official partners.
