Flames Festival
Four free evenings of music, sport, and youth community in Sassuolo
About Flames Festival
The Flames Festival lands in Sassuolo
After editions held between Sassuolo and Formigine, the Flames Festival arrives for the first time in the heart of Sassuolo, in the province of Modena (Emilia-Romagna), with four consecutive evenings from June 25th to 28th, 2026. The event takes place in the athletics track area of Piazza Falcone e Borsellino, next to the school complex, with free admission.
A festival designed for young people
Flames was born as a meeting point for music, sport, and culture for the new generation. Since 2022, the association of young people from Sassuolo that organizes it has transformed the territory into a stage for the Emilia community, bringing together artists, creators, and local talents. The event features pop evenings, formats dedicated to younger audiences, and '90s-themed moments, alternating concerts, DJ sets, and comedy shows.
Three areas, one party
The festival area is organized into several zones: a stage area for music and dance performances, a food & drinks area with quality food stands, and a sports space dedicated to tournaments, a hallmark of the Flames association. The goal is to offer a place to dance, eat, play sports, and socialize until late at night.
Sassuolo, City of Music
The event is fully part of the "Sassuolo Città della Musica" project, through which the Municipality aims to position the city within an international circuit and UNESCO nominations related to music. The festival thus represents not only an entertainment event but also a piece of the cultural strategy of the city in the Modena ceramic district.
