Irene Grandi will be the star of the big free concert scheduled for Saturday, June 21, at Loano on the occasion of the 2025 edition of “White Night,” the long marathon of entertainment promoted by the City of Loano in collaboration with Fipe-Confcommercio and the Multipurpose Cultural Center.
As always, the centerpiece of the event will be the businesses and venues, which will remain open until late in the evening and from 5 p.m. will offer original tasting stations. Also starting at 5 p.m. on the promenade will be the stands of artisans and artists, who will display the fruits of their skills until the evening. Great protagonist will be music, with about as many concerts and performances in different parts of the city starting at 9 pm.
At 10 p.m. the big free concert (organized in cooperation the Eccoci Eventi Agency) that is the highlight of the “White Night” will kick off. Performing this year on the stage set up in Piazza Italia is a great interpreter of Italian music: Irene Grandi.
After a 30-year career lived with intensity, passion and a tireless desire to put herself on the line, Irene Grandi returns to stages throughout Italy with the “Fiera di me Tour”: a show that is at once a celebration, a tale and a vision. A concert conceived as a journey between past and present, which gathers the most precious fragments of a career that began in 1994 and recomposes them into a new, vibrant mosaic that looks with momentum toward the future. A present in which to discover, once again, that “it's all here.”.
Alongside the great classics that have marked entire generations (from “In vacanza da una vita” to “La tua ragazza sempre,” from “Bruci la città” to “Prima di partire per un lungo viaggio”) Irene brings back lesser-known gems from her repertoire and presents her new unreleased songs, such as “Fiera di Me,” a hymn to personal strength and rebirth, and “Universo,” signed by Francesco Bianconi and Kaballà. These are joined by “Favole,” the new single released on April 11, a further piece of an ever-evolving artistic journey that reflects a woman and musician capable of telling her story with sincerity, delicacy and expressive power.
On stage with her is a band of extraordinary musicians: Max Frignani on guitar, Piero Spitilli on bass, Fabrizio Morganti on drums, Marco Galeone on keyboards and Titta Nesti, backing vocalist and multi-instrumentalist. Together they will create an energetic and exciting show, where every note is a piece of his story and every word a bridge to what is to come. The tour is organized by Imarts -International Music And Arts.
Access to the square, starting at 8:45 p.m., will be free until maximum capacity is reached.
This year's festival will also find space in the area of Gazzi Street, Dante Street, Pirandello Street and Enrico Toti Avenue with “Waiting for the White Night.” Starting at 7 p.m. on Friday, June 20, venues will offer street food with live music and “magical” entertainment for children.
