Valdelsa Love Festival
Five nights of music, street food, and a funfair in Poggibonsi
About Valdelsa Love Festival
The Valdelsa Love Festival in Poggibonsi
Launched in 2024, the Valdelsa Love Festival has quickly established itself as one of the most popular musical events in Valdelsa, the region stretching between the provinces of Siena and Florence along the Elsa River. The festival takes place in Poggibonsi, in the province of Siena, within the spacious open-air Bernino parking area—a location that is easy to reach and equipped with a large public car park.
A popular and free festival
The formula is simple and successful: five consecutive nights, always with free admission, featuring a stage that hosts a different musical genre each night. The lineup ranges from Italian rap to electronic and techno, and from 90s and 2000s revival parties to tribute bands dedicated to music legends. It is a program designed to appeal to diverse audiences and attract families, young people, and live music fans from all over Tuscany to Poggibonsi.
More than just music
A true village revolves around the stage: a large, renovated street food area featuring food trucks from all over Italy, offering everything from Tuscan cuisine to arrosticini, burgers, and desserts, accompanied by a drink area and numerous tables for on-site dining. For children and families, there is a funfair with attractions for all ages, from bumper cars to merry-go-rounds.
A landmark for the Valdelsa region
Organized by Jungle Events with the patronage of the Municipalities of Poggibonsi and Colle di Val d'Elsa, the Valdelsa Love Festival has become a benchmark for the area's nightlife during May and June in just a few editions. Its growth reflects the local appetite for live music and social connection in a territory that, beyond famous art cities like San Gimignano and Colle di Val d'Elsa, also offers contemporary events with strong popular appeal.
