Major names in international rock and blues at the Palasport San Bernardino
In the municipality of Chiari (Province of Brescia, Lombardy), the Chiari Music Festival is the premier event for rock and blues lovers. It is organized by ADMR (Amici per la Diffusione della Musica Rock - Friends for the Promotion of Rock Music), a local association active since 1996 which, through live performances, radio, and a club, has made the promotion of rock music its mission.
The festival takes place at the Palasport San Bernardino, within the Salesian Institute San Bernardino on Via Palazzolo, and offers a handful of evenings with internationally renowned artists. The festival's lineups have featured great guitarists and voices from the global rock-blues scene, making Chiari a significant stop for the European tours of musicians who rarely perform in the province.
Bringing world-class names to a provincial town like Chiari is a challenge that ADMR renews every year with passion and expertise. The Chiari Music Festival is proof of how a local association rooted in the territory can become a reference point for music enthusiasts throughout Lombardy and beyond, offering quality concerts in an intimate and well-curated setting.
Rock and blues have been at the heart of ADMR's offerings since its foundation: genres that thrive on energy, improvisation, and a direct relationship with the audience, finding an intimate and engaging dimension at the Palasport San Bernardino. The festival evenings are designed for those who love live music, far from large stadiums and close to the artists. It is this authenticity – the opportunity to see guitar legends and extraordinary voices from a few meters away – that makes the Chiari Music Festival an anticipated and beloved event, capable of drawing enthusiasts to Chiari from all over the region and beyond provincial borders.
The Chiari Music Festival 2026 features four concerts by international rock and blues artists at the Palasport San Bernardino in Chiari, organized by ADMR. On the bill: the legendary The Robert Cray Band, The Del Fuegos, guitarist and singer Samantha Fish, and guitar virtuoso Eric Johnson.
All concerts take place at the Palasport San Bernardino (via Palazzolo 1). Tickets on Ticketone, Ticketmaster, and through ADMR.
