The ephemeral city of electronic music at Campovolo in Reggio Emilia
elrow Town Italy is the Italian version of the famous Spanish format elrow, born in Barcelona and now one of the most recognizable brands in the international clubbing scene. For one day, the Iren Green Park of the legendary Campovolo, on the outskirts of Reggio Emilia, transforms into a true ephemeral city: a expanse of stages, surreal scenographies, confetti, giant balloons, and performers animating every corner of the area.
The formula is typical of elrow: twelve hours of non-stop music, from 12 PM to midnight, spread across five themed stages, each with a different scenic theme. Over forty DJs and more than one hundred performers, including dancers, acrobats, jugglers, and actors, transform the festival into a total spectacle, where music intertwines with street theater and visual installations. Genres range from house to tech house, from harder techno to contemporary electronic sounds.
At elrow, the audience is not just a spectator: the extravagant and colorful dress code is an integral part of the experience. Eccentric headdresses, *weirdo* costumes, glitter, and meticulously detailed looks fill the Campovolo lawn from the moment the gates open. Thousands of young people come from all over Italy and abroad to experience a day of collective celebration, outdoors, in one of Italy's iconic live music venues.
The Iren Green Park is located in the area of the former Reggio Emilia airport, in Emilia-Romagna, and has been the venue for the country's biggest music gatherings for years. Choosing Campovolo means placing elrow Town Italy within the tradition of major outdoor events in the Province of Reggio Emilia, with ample space, dedicated parking, and a capacity exceeding thirty thousand people.
After its initial editions, elrow Town Italy has established itself as one of the main electronic music festivals on the Italian calendar, capable of attracting a large and international audience. The event is for adults only (access +18) and tickets, which are nominative, can only be purchased through the festival's official channels.
The third Italian edition of the format confirmed Campovolo as the Italian capital of elrow. From the midday opening, the Iren Green Park lawn filled with thousands of young people in eccentric and colorful costumes: Sitting Bull headdresses, little horns, glitter, and *weirdo* looks meticulously detailed. The main stage, dominated by the jaws of a devil with a flavor of Fellini-esque and visionary allegory, embodied the theatrical and surreal spirit of the brand. There were also controversies, related to the cancellation of some international performances and the event costs, but attendance exceeded 30,000 people.
