Concerts 2025, the most anticipated of November

Even if the season of large outdoor music festivals is now a memory, live music continues to be the protagonist in Italian cities, with a calendar full of unmissable events. From tours in sports halls to concerts in theaters and clubs, November offers perfect opportunities to experience exciting evenings, between great returns and new discoveries. Here is a selection of the most anticipated live shows of the month (with a look also at the news arriving in 2026).

A month dedicated to Radiohead

The countdown has officially started: seven years after the end of the concert cycle in support of their latest album “A moon shaped pool”, released in 2016, the Radiohead have announced their return to the stage with a tour which, in addition to Madrid, Bologna, London, Copenhagen and Berlin, will also stop in Italy for four concerts in Bologna on 14, 15, 17 and 18 November. The tickets for the four events were pulverized. Philip Selway said: “Last year we got together to rehearse, just for the sake of it. After a seven-year hiatus, it was great to get back to playing the songs and reconnect with a musical identity that has become a deep part of all five of us. It also made us want to play some concerts together, so we hope you can come to one of the next dates. For now it will just be these, but who knows where all this will take us.”

But there are also Marilyn Manson, Jamiroquai and…

But Thom Yorke and his associates will not be the only great rock protagonists expected in Italy in November. On November 25th at the ChorusLife Arena in Bergamo the – controversial – myth of Marilyn Manson will manifest itself with his “One Assassination Under God World Tour”. Mumford & Sons arrive at the UnipolArena in Bologna and at the Forum in Milan on 19 and 21 November respectively. Jamiroquai are also expected on November 13th in the Lombard capital, again at the Forum, busy with their “The heels of steel tour”. With Mick Hucknall’s Simply Red we will take a leap back in time about forty years: appointment on November 7th at the Kioene Arena in Padua, November 8th at the Forum in Milan and November 9th at the Mandela Forum in Florence.

The divas of pop

From Katy Perry to Lorde, passing through Elodie, Annalisa and Anna: November will also and above all be the month of the great pop divas (and rap, in the case of the Ligurian femcee). Katy Perry will return to perform in Italy seven years after the last official concert. It was June 2, 2018 and it was hosted by the UnipolArena in Bologna. And in the same venue the voice of “I kissed a girl” will perform on November 2nd. Also expected in Bologna on 29 November, again at the UnipolArena, is Lorde, who has returned to the recording scene after four years with her album “Virgin”. Coming to the stars of Italian pop: on October 29th Elodie will inaugurate her tour of the sports halls at the Palazzo del Turismo in Jesolo, which will also stop in Milan and Bari. Annalisa’s tour will also start from Jesolo on November 15th, which will pass through Padua on November 18th and arrive in Milan on November 28th and 29th. And there is sky-high anticipation for the first tour of the sports halls of the phenomenon Anna, who will go to the Forum in Milan on 22, 23 November and 24 November and will arrive in Bologna on the 26th.

From the melodic rock of Modà to the rap of Coez and Bresh

Modà return to perform in sports halls with a tour which, after the debut on October 29th in Padua, will also go to Rome and Bari, on November 23rd at the Palazzo dello Sport and on November 27th at the PalaFlorio. In Rome, at the Palazzo dello Sport, on November 29th Alfa will also perform, very launched after the summer hit “I like it” in duet with Manu Chao. Bresh, fresh from participating in the last Sanremo Festival with “La tana del crabchio”, will also compete with the sports halls for the first time: he is expected on 6 and 7 November at the Forum in Milan. The person who could make his debut in Sanremo next year is Coez, who after the release of the album “1998” last summer will inaugurate the arena tour from Ancona on 12 November – among other cities – in Bari on 22 November.

Previews for 2026

Meanwhile, the calendar relating to the major live events scheduled in Italy in 2026 continues to expand. There are those who have already moved forward well in advance, revealing the plans for 2026: from Vasco Rossi (expected in June 2026 in Ferrara, Olbia, Bari, Ancona and Udine) to Cesare Cremonini (also expected in June 2026 in Milan, Imola and Rome, where for the first time in his career will perform at the Circus Maximus). Ultimo has announced a single show, for next year: the one on 4 July 2026 which will see him perform in front of 250 thousand spectators in Tor Vergata, the south-eastern outskirts of the capital, with “The meeting of the Last”. He will beat Vasco Rossi’s record for tickets sold for a single event in Italy. Achille Lauro, after reaching the sold out date of 10 June 2026 at the Olympic Stadium, has announced an appointment at San Siro in Milan scheduled for 15 June. Ligabue, vice versa, after announcing a show at the Scala del Calcio, made it official that in the summer of 2026, more precisely on 12 June, he will also perform at the Olimpico in Rome. After the great success of last year’s concerts at the Maradona Stadium in Naples and after having set the Agnano Hippodrome, also in Naples, on fire this summer, Geolier will make his first stadium tour in the summer of 2026. Naturally it will also touch his city – three dates scheduled: 26, 27 and 28 June – but will also see the rapper perform in the stadiums of Milan (13 June) and Rome (19 June). Not just the pop of Irama, who on 11 June, as already reported, will perform for the first time in his career at San Siro: in the summer of 2026 the Scala del Calcio will also host The Weeknd’s mega shows, on 24, 25 and 26 July. In Milan, but in this case at the Snai La Maura Hippodrome, System Of A Down will also arrive on 6 July, while on 17 June heavy metal will land for the first time at San Siro with Iron Maiden. Olly has instead chosen to play “at home”: on 18, 20 and 21 June the Genoese singer-songwriter will perform at the Ferraris Stadium in his city. The voice of “Balorda nostalgia” will then perform on June 30th at Rock in Rome and on July 3rd at the Royal Palace of Caserta.
