About Sanremo Summer Symphony

In summer, Sanremo's music moves outdoors to the Franco Alfano Auditorium with the Sanremo Summer Symphony: a series of concerts blending symphonic orchestra, jazz, pop, and international collaborations. From Goran Bregović to Kurt Elling, from symphonic tributes to author discoveries, this festival confirms Sanremo as a music capital even in the warm months, thanks to the city's Symphony Orchestra.

Sanremo's Symphonic Summer

The Sanremo Summer Symphony is the summer concert series organized by the Sanremo Symphony Orchestra together with the Sanremo Città della Musica Foundation. It takes place at the Franco Alfano Auditorium, nestled in the greenery of Corso degli Inglesi, in the province of Imperia, and offers a program that ranges from symphonic music to jazz, from author pop to international collaborations.

A Program of Big Names

The series combines concerts by the Symphony Orchestra with evenings featuring Italian and foreign artists, in a crossover program that blends genres and styles. Symphonic tributes to music legends and world premieres complete an offering designed for a broad and discerning audience.

Sanremo: A Music Capital

With the Summer Symphony, Sanremo reaffirms its musical vocation far beyond the week of the Festival: a city that lives and breathes music all year round, valuing its orchestra and attracting enthusiasts from all over Italy and abroad during the summer months.
