Music, energy, and solidarity at the Poviglio Sports Park
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.
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.
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.
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 โฌ6,000 to Curare onlus, demonstrating how public participation can translate into a concrete impact on local healthcare and youth.
An evening at the Poviglio Music Festival means having fun while knowing you're contributing to the common good: a now-anticipated event of the Reggio Emilia summer.
The 2026 edition of the Poviglio Music Festival confirms the formula that led to its debut success: two evenings of celebration at the Poviglio Sports Park, on Via Zappellazzo, with music, food, and fundraising for charity. This year again, all proceeds are dedicated to local projects, including the youth sector of Povigliese Calcio, Curare onlus, and the local comprehensive institute.
For both evenings, the restaurant, bar, and kids' area are open. Opening hours and show start times will be announced on the event's official social media channels in the days leading up to the event.
The festival is held at the Poviglio Sports Park, on Via Zappellazzo, in Poviglio (RE). It is easily accessible by car from the SP62R and Via Emilia; the most convenient highway exit is Terre di Canossa-Campegine on the A1. The nearest train station is Poviglio on the Parma-Suzzara line.
A restaurant, bar, and kids' area are available on-site. The area is outdoors, so comfortable clothing is recommended.
Updates on dates, program, and admission details can be found on the official social media pages (Facebook and Instagram @povigliomusicfestival) and on the Terre di Po e dei Gonzaga portal.
