MusicaRivaFestival returns: the 42nd edition between great music, education and local heritage

MusicaRivaFestival returns for its 42nd edition with a rich and diverse programme designed to engage audiences of all ages and musical tastes. From symphonic music to lighter genres, from dixieland to solo recitals, from international youth orchestras to local talents, and from emerging artists to established names on the global music scene, the Festival confirms its role as a key cultural reference point in the Alto Garda area and beyond.

Alongside performances, a central part of the Festival is dedicated to advanced training for young musicians aiming for an international career. The educational programme includes masterclasses and workshops, such as instrument making laboratories, as well as activities open to a wider audience.

The Festival also offers an opportunity to rediscover the beauty of the region, with events held in iconic and evocative locations not only in Riva del Garda, but also in Tenno, Arco, Stenico, Fiavè, Campo Lomaso, Limone, Malcesine and Trento.

With a strong commitment to environmental sustainability, the Festival makes use of natural settings, enhancing them through natural light, authentic acoustics and low impact technical solutions. Special attention is also given to accessibility, with dedicated services and events designed to ensure that everyone can fully enjoy the Festival experience.

The 2026 programme reflects the Festival’s multifaceted identity, featuring multiple performances each day and a wide range of musical genres, including symphonic and chamber concerts, solo performances, jazz, pop, opera and dance.
