Suoni Controvento â tappa di Norcia
Music and nature on the Castelluccio plateau
About Suoni Controvento Norcia
Suoni Controvento in Norcia
Suoni Controvento is the zero-impact travelling festival that every summer transforms Umbria into an open-air stage, weaving music, theatre, and literature among historic villages and natural sites. Among the over twenty locations involved is also Norcia, in the province of Perugia, the heart of the Valnerina.
The Scentinelle stage
The Norcia leg features one of the most evocative stages of the entire festival: the Castelluccio pass, at the Scentinelle, on the plateau overlooking the Pian Grande and the Sibillini Mountains. Here, concerts become an experience in contact with nature, reachable after a short climb, with music filling the mountain air at sunset.
A sustainable festival
Suoni Controvento has made sustainability its hallmark: ISO 20121 certification for sustainable event management, CO2 emission reduction, circular economy, and attention to the local territory. More than just a concert lineup, it's an invitation to discover authentic Umbria by walking, listening, and respecting the places.
Suoni Controvento Norcia â edition 2026
The 2026 edition of Suoni Controvento takes place in Umbria from July 16th to September 13th. The Norcia leg is scheduled for Sunday, August 2nd at the Scentinelle, on the Castelluccio di Norcia pass.
