The Festivalbar was a summer event that took place every year from 1964 to 2007. Designed by Vittorio Salvetti, it was initially designed to reward the most “popular” song in Juke-Box during the summer (each device was connected to a counter that found the data); Later the ranking was also established considering the radio and television passages and sales data. The winning song was announced in September, with a public evening held in Asiago from 1964 to 1974 (with the exceptions of 1965, when it was held in Milan, and 1966 and 1967, when it was held in Salice Terme), and then from 1975 at the Arena di Verona.
