Aquara Music Fest

Aquara Music Fest 2025: the seventh edition

The call for entries for the 2025 edition was published on June 17, with the deadline set for July 8; as always, the invitation was open to bands, duos, and soloists from all over Italy, with no genre or language restrictions, provided they competed with their own songs. From the applications received, the listening panel of the cultural association «L'Alveare» ETS selected the semi-finalists and then the four finalists.

The final evening was held on Friday, August 22, 2025, at 9:30 PM in Piazza Vittorio Veneto, in the center of Aquara, in the province of Salerno. On stage, one after the other, were The Roux Crue from Naples, Rossonoha from Rome, Known Physics from Perugia, and Back One Out from Livorno, each with a 25-minute set of original material.

The jury awarded Known Physics, a band from Perugia, the commemorative plaque and the cash prize of the contest named after Fioravante Serraino; the group also received the soundtrack award for the following edition. 2025 confirmed the national vocation of the event, which in its first seven editions has brought 141 contestants from all over Italy to Aquara.
