Live music and entertainment in the Public Gardens of Jesi
The Jesi Music Festival is the summer music event that transforms the Public Gardens of Viale Cavallotti, in the heart of Jesi (province of Ancona, in the Marche region), into a large open-air stage. For three months, from June to August, the gardens' green arena hosts a long series of free admission music evenings, designed to accompany the city's summer nights with live music, good food, and a relaxed, convivial atmosphere.
The event features twelve dates spanning different genres and formats: tribute concerts to the great names of Italian song, jam sessions, author music, comedy nights, and popular celebration events. The festival caters to a wide and diverse audience, from families to young people, to music enthusiasts who find a regular meeting point here every summer.
The program alternates tributes to the most beloved bands and artists with performances by local musicians, highlighting the Marche music scene alongside the great classics of popular music. There are also spectacular events, such as celebration nights and special events that draw large crowds to the gardens.
The pulsating heart of the event is the Chalet lo sBARello, the historic venue in the Jesi Public Gardens managed by Matteo Montesi, the festival's creator and organizer. The event stems from the collaboration between the Chalet and the Municipality of Jesi and is part of the city's summer events calendar. Before each concert, you can enjoy an aperitif and an informal dinner in a setting designed for a relaxed evening with a sandwich, a drink, and live music.
What makes the Jesi Music Festival special is its setting: the Public Gardens of Viale Cavallotti offer a green, shaded space just a short walk from the historic center of Jesi, one of the most important art cities in the Vallesina and Marche region. The free evenings, open to all, have become an anticipated part of city life, uniting residents and visitors in a festive atmosphere that lasts until late at night.
The Jesi Music Festival 2026 takes place from June 6 to August 29 in the Public Gardens of Viale Cavallotti, Jesi, with twelve free admission events.
