Poviglio Music Festival

The Poviglio Music Festival

The Poviglio Music Festival is the new summer music event in Poviglio, a town in the Bassa Reggiana area of the province of Reggio Emilia, in the heart of Emilia-Romagna. Founded in 2025 from the idea of Roberto Biggi, promoter and organizer of the event, the festival has quickly won over the local audience and those from surrounding areas with a simple and winning formula: live music, DJ sets, good food, and a strong commitment to solidarity.

Where it Takes Place

The event's headquarters is the Poviglio Sports Park, located on Via Zappellazzo, made available by Povigliese Calcio along with a group of volunteers. The outdoor spaces host the stage, the restaurant, and the bar, while a dedicated kids' area makes the festival accessible to families. It's an event designed to be enjoyed by the entire community in a festive and shared atmosphere.

Music and Fun

The program features a mix of tribute bands, Latin American nights, and exciting DJ sets that keep the dance floor alive until late at night. The 2026 edition brings popular names from the Italian dance and revival scene to Poviglio, with two evenings dedicated to dancing and music for all ages. The musical selection ranges from live reinterpretations of great classics to the latest rhythms, catering to a diverse audience.

A Festival That Does Good

What sets the Poviglio Music Festival apart is its solidarity aspect. All proceeds from the evenings are donated to local organizations: the youth sector of Povigliese Calcio for the completion of the sports center, Curare onlus to support the MIRE project (Maternity and Childhood in Reggio Emilia), and the Comprehensive Institute of Poviglio. Already in its first edition in 2025, the event raised and donated €6,000 to Curare onlus, demonstrating how public participation can translate into a concrete impact on local healthcare and youth.
