About Ride and Rhyme Festival

Ten hours of pure street culture in the heart of Milan: the Ride and Rhyme Festival combines rap, BMX freestyle, MTB dirt, and live street art in one big celebration at Fabbrica del Vapore. From 2 PM to midnight, stages and ramps alternate between hip-hop concerts, contests, and professional rider shows, while murals come to life in real-time. An immersive experience designed for Gen Z and Millennials, in its first Milanese edition.

When Music Meets Two Wheels

The Ride and Rhyme Festival was born from a simple yet powerful idea: to bring the culture of rap and urban two-wheeled disciplines together on the same stage. In its first Milanese edition, the festival chooses the Fabbrica del Vapore, at Via Giulio Cesare Procaccini 4, as its home – one of the most iconic spaces in Milan's creative scene (Province of Milan, Lombardy).

Over Ten Hours of Programming

From 2:00 PM to midnight, the festival offers a packed schedule. On the music front, Italian hip-hop artists like Ensi and Jack The Smoker will take the stage, with the presentation of Muretto Milano's new album and continuous DJ sets by DJ MS and DJ Sammy. On the sports side, a contest featuring twenty emerging riders and a one-hour Main Show with top professionals such as Torquato Testa, Cristian Falvo, Vittorio Galli, and Ste Sender.

BMX, MTB, and Live Art

The ramps will host BMX freestyle and MTB dirt shows, with technical support from specialized entities. Meanwhile, throughout the Fabbrica del Vapore spaces, live street art sessions curated by Throw Up Magazine will bring murals to life in real-time. A continuous dialogue between music, sport, and visual art that lies at the very heart of street culture.

A Celebration for New Generations

Designed for Gen Z and Millennials, the festival expects over 2,000 attendees and offers various ticket options, from daytime to evening passes, and a full experience. It's a new event bringing a format to Milan capable of uniting different audiences and languages under the banner of urban culture.
