MITO SettembreMusica
The great music festival that unites Milan and Turin every September
About MITO
Two cities, one music
MITO SettembreMusica is one of the most important music festivals in Italy. Born in 2007 from the meeting of the historic events in Milan (Lombardy) and Turin, it brings the two cities together in a single programme that every September offers dozens of concerts for about three weeks, often more than three a day for each city. The name itself, MITO, combines the initials of Milan and Turin.
The city as a concert hall
In Milan, concerts liven up some of the city's most prestigious cultural venues: the Teatro Dal Verme, the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory, the Piccolo Teatro, and numerous other venues, including churches, museums, and squares. The programme, built around thematic paths, juxtaposes the great classical repertoire, contemporary music, jazz, ethnic music, and offerings for families, with artists and orchestras from all over the world.
A popular focus
MITO stands out for its attention to accessibility: in addition to the major concerts, it offers events designed to introduce the public to music, shows for children, free events, and widespread initiatives. A festival that makes musical culture a shared heritage and that, every September, transforms Milan and Turin into a large open-air stage.
MITO — edition 2026
The 2026 edition of MITO SettembreMusica, the twentieth, takes place in September between Milan and Turin, confirming the formula of a major shared event with dozens of concerts spread over about three weeks. The programme is built around thematic paths that serve as a common thread for the events.
In Milan, concerts are held in prestigious venues such as the Teatro Dal Verme, the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory, and the Piccolo Teatro, as well as churches and other locations. The detailed schedule, with artists and programmes, is published on the official website before the festival begins.
