International Piano Festival of Brescia and Bergamo 2026

The 63rd edition of the International Piano Festival of Brescia and Bergamo is set to transform the cultural landscape into a world-class stage. From April 27th to October 1st, 2026, the event explores the theme East & West – From Chopin to Arvo Pärt, offering a profound journey into the repertoires of Eastern Europe and the Slavic tradition.

The program features internationally renowned artists, including Mikhail Pletnëv, Grigory Sokolov, and the highly anticipated debut of Behzod Abdurahimov. The festival strengthens its connection with the territory through prestigious venues such as the Teatro Grande, the Teatro Sociale, and the Auditorium San Barnaba, where music harmoniously blends with historical architecture. The traditional Concerti nel Chiostro and the autumn performances by acclaimed pianists like Beatrice Rana are also highlights of this edition.

Established in 1964 in honor of Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, the festival remains an essential reference point for enthusiasts of classical and contemporary music. We invite our guests to explore the full program and immerse themselves in an artistic experience of rare intensity.
