Arcosoli Jazz

The 2025 edition of Arcosoli Jazz was held from July 26 to August 4, 2025, at the Teatro della Panoramica dei Templi, in the Valley of the Temples of Agrigento, as part of the summer program "Sotto il cielo d'estate al Parco".

The program opened on July 26 with Symphonic Jazz by the Palermo Classica Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Roberto Beltran-Zavala, featuring pianist Clayton Stephenson and a repertoire dedicated to Bernstein, Ellington, and Gershwin. This was followed on July 28 by the Kevin Hays Trio, led by the Grammy-winning pianist. On August 1, fusion guitar legend Mike Stern took the stage, while August 2 featured singer-songwriter Chiara Civello. On August 3, a free concert with Lino Patruno, one of the greatest exponents of Italian jazz, and the closing on August 4 with Danilo Rea and his crossovers between jazz and pop. In 2025, the Valley of the Temples once again transformed into an open-air stage where music met archaeology and the beauty of the landscape.
