Teatro delle Rocce Festival

An amphitheatre born from the rock

The Teatro delle Rocce Festival takes place in Gavorrano, a small town in the province of Grosseto, in the heart of the Maremma and the Tuscan Colline Metallifere. Its venue is one of the most fascinating places in Tuscany: the Teatro delle Rocce, an open-air amphitheatre carved from an ancient limestone quarry once linked to the area's mining activity. Inaugurated in September 2003, the space evokes the shape of a Greek theatre, with spectator tiers following the excavation front until they merge with the rock face.

With about two thousand seats, it is the most important open-air theatre in the northern part of the Grosseto area and is considered one of the most beautiful places in Italy to listen to music, thanks to the combination of landscape, industrial history, and sound quality.

The mining park as a backdrop

The theatre is part of the Gavorrano Mining and Naturalistic Park, one of the gateways to the mining territory. Attending a concert here means immersing yourself in a landscape that tells the story of work in the tunnels, now reclaimed and returned to the community as a cultural space. The frame of bare rock, illuminated at night, amplifies the emotion of the performances and creates an atmosphere that is hard to find elsewhere.

The festival

Organized by LEG Live Emotion Group in collaboration with the Municipality of Gavorrano, the festival enlivens summer nights, typically in August, with a lineup that alternates concerts by established Italian artists, comedy and theatrical shows, tributes, and nights dedicated to dance culture. Over the years, the stage has hosted singer-songwriters, pop bands, comedians, and well-known names in Italian pop music, confirming the Teatro delle Rocce as a landmark of the Maremma's musical summer.

The 2026 edition

The 2026 edition offers a series of events scheduled between August 4th and 20th, with tickets available on major platforms. Announced guests include popular pop bands, voices of Italian songwriting, comedy, and tribute shows, for a varied program designed for diverse audiences.
