Ingranaggi Festival – Conselice stop

When music returns to the factory

There is a festival in Bassa Romagna that is not held on any ordinary stage but inside the local businesses: sheds, workshops, and warehouses that for one evening become concert halls. It is Ingranaggi Festival, a music and creative review organized by the Union of Municipalities of Bassa Romagna in collaboration with the Filmeeting association, which manages Radio Sonora. Its twelfth edition, in 2026, spans four municipalities with as many stops and kicks off right in Conselice, in the Province of Ravenna (Emilia-Romagna).

The inaugural stop in Conselice

The first event of 2026 takes place in the spaces of Tecnoagri, at via Marconi 49, in Conselice. Here, the idea that animates the entire festival becomes immediately clear: bringing independent music and artistic expressions of young people into the places of work, where stories, trades, and communities are produced every day. The machinery and sheds become the backdrop for a concert that speaks primarily to those who grew up with the new Italian singer-songwriter scene.

Not just concerts: photography and fanzines

Each stop of Ingranaggi is much more than a live performance. Accompanying the music is a photographic exhibition by young local photographers, who have told the stories of the companies hosting the festival through images. At each date, you can also find Ci Pensi Mai?, the fanzine from Radio Sonora, and the radio speakers introduce and accompany the concerts. A formula that intertwines business, music, photography, and youth culture in a single event, with free admission.

A local project

Ingranaggi is a project of the Union of Municipalities of Bassa Romagna, which brings together nine municipalities including Conselice, Lugo, Fusignano, Bagnacavallo, Alfonsine, Cotignola, Massa Lombarda, Sant'Agata sul Santerno, and Bagnara di Romagna. The review is part of the AvvistaMenti project and is supported by the Emilia-Romagna Region through European funds (ERDF and ESF+), as part of policies dedicated to young people and the valorization of local work and businesses.

Why it's worth it

• Concerts of singer-songwriter and emerging Italian indie music, with free admission.
• A unique setting: the stage is inside a real company in Bassa Romagna.
• Widespread photographic exhibition and Radio Sonora fanzine at each stop.
• An opportunity to discover Conselice, a Municipality in Bassa Romagna known for its history linked to clandestine printing and the Resistance.
