Tener-a-mente 2026

Tener-a-mente is one of the most captivating musical and cultural events of the Italian summer, bringing together leading international artists, high-quality singer-songwriters and a venue that is unique in the world: the amphitheatre of the Vittoriale degli Italiani, overlooking Lake Garda.

Now in its 15th edition, the festival returns between June and July 2026 with its main programme, now known as Tener-a-mente Solstizio, which attracts thousands of spectators every year thanks to its refined and international line-up. The stage will feature a mix of world-renowned artists and leading figures from the contemporary music scene: among the names announced are Diana Krall, Coez, Kings of Convenience, Of Monsters and Men and Chet Faker, confirming the festival’s eclectic and international spirit.

From 2026, the festival will double its offering with Tener-a-mente Equinozio, a second section scheduled from 4 to 16 September, which ideally extends the musical experience until the end of summer. The star of this new phase will be Biagio Antonacci, a symbol of great Italian music.

Over the years, Tener-a-mente has hosted some of the most iconic figures in the world of music, becoming a must-visit destination for lovers of live concerts. Its success is reflected in impressive figures: consistently sold-out events, an international audience and significant media coverage, with recognition from publications such as GQ Italia and collaborations with Radio Monte Carlo.

Attending Tener-a-mente means enjoying an immersive experience where music, art and landscape blend into a unique atmosphere, set against a backdrop of sky, lake and history. A festival that is not just a series of concerts, but a true emotional journey into the heart of the Italian summer.
