Music, wine and stories in the Botticino marble quarries
Cava Experience — Music, Wine, Stories is one of the most evocative events of Scenari di Marmo, the cultural and tourist project that enhances the marble basin in eastern Brescia. The event takes place in the Botticino Classico quarries, in the Municipality of Botticino, transformed for one evening into an immersive setting where art, technology, and the memory of extractive work meet.
The protagonist of the evening is Andrea Casta, an internationally renowned crossover electric violinist, from Brescia, known for his iconic luminous bow and his ability to engage with architecturally and naturally suggestive spaces. With tours in 32 countries and over 200 concerts a year, Casta creates atmospheres on the border between pop, electronic music, and visual experimentation, perfect for the monumental setting of the quarries.
The musical and visual experience is complemented by tastings of Botticino DOC wines, one of Italy's smallest and most characteristic denominations, produced precisely on the hills surrounding the marble basin. Marble and wine thus become the two identity symbols of the territory, told in a single evening.
Cava Experience is part of Scenari di Marmo. Experiential paths in authentic Lombardy, a program that from April to August brings together five municipalities in eastern Brescia — Botticino, Nuvolera, Paitone, Serle, and Rezzato — through marble, music, landscape, and food and wine. A calendar of widespread events that tells the soul of a territory where the white Botticino marble, used in world-famous monuments, is the true identity signature.
The 2026 edition of Cava Experience takes place on Friday, June 12, in the Botticino Classico quarries (BS). The evening, immersive and with limited seating, combines art, technology, and memory of marble work, featuring a concert by electric violinist Andrea Casta and tastings of Botticino DOC wines.
The event is one of the highlights of Scenari di Marmo, the cultural program that involves the municipalities of Botticino, Nuvolera, Paitone, Serle, and Rezzato from April to August 2026.
