Sequoie Music Park
The summer series of live concerts at Parco delle Caserme Rosse in Bologna
About Sequoie Music Park
A Series in the Green Heart of Bologna
Sequoie Music Park is one of the most distinctive live music series of the Italian summer. It takes place in Bologna, the capital city of Emilia-Romagna, within the Parco delle Caserme Rosse, on Via di Corticella. This green area transforms into an open-air stage surrounded by centuries-old trees during the summer season. The 2026 edition marks the sixth year of the event, which began in 2021 and has grown to become a reference point for audiences in Bologna and concert enthusiasts throughout the region.
A Line-up Between Italy and the World
The Sequoie Music Park program covers a wide range of genres, from international rock to indie, from Italian singer-songwriters to hip-hop, and electronic music to post-punk. Each season, the series hosts dozens of evenings, featuring prominent national artists alongside international stars, often as exclusive stops or the only Italian dates on their summer tours.
A Philosophy of Sustainability
One of the project's pillars is its attention to the environment. Organizers promote sustainable mobility, inviting the public to reach the park on foot, by bicycle, or using public transport, and focus on using recyclable materials to reduce the impact of the evenings. The underlying idea is to bring live concerts back to their essence: an authentic experience of connection between music, people, and nature.
More Than Just a Concert
The evenings at Sequoie Music Park are not limited to the main stage. The park area includes spaces dedicated to dining with street food options and local products, markets, DJ sets, and free-entry social gatherings that animate the park before and after the live performances. The result is a formula that combines great music, conviviality, and a unique natural setting within the Italian festival landscape.
Why It's Worth It
- A rich and varied line-up, from rock to indie, singer-songwriters, and hip-hop;
- One of the few large open-air concert venues immersed in greenery just minutes from the center of Bologna;
- Exclusive dates and the only Italian shows for international artists;
- A strong commitment to environmental sustainability;
- Food areas, markets, and free events that complete the experience.
For those visiting Bologna in the summer, Sequoie Music Park is the ideal opportunity to experience the city through its vibrant music scene, in a park that becomes the pulsating heart of Emilia's nightlife for over a month.
