In Turin today, Vasco begins his new venture behind both the venetian blinds and the movie screen.
Italian rock legend Vasco Rossi returns to the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino for the commencement of his "Vasco Live 2025" tour on May 31. This highly anticipated event will mark the first of two sold-out dates at the venue, following a three-year absence from the city.
Rossi expressed his excitement on Instagram, stating, "After three years, I'm back and I can't wait to start again from the Olimpico." He went on to explain, "In 2022, we concluded the tour here, and this time we're reopening it in this magnificent city."
The upcoming concert in Turin will echo the city's avid support, as hundreds of tents have sprung up around the stadium, transforming the area into an open-air rock village. Fans from all corners of Italy have camped out for days to secure the best spots, with the capital of Piedmont reaching nearly 90% hotel occupancy due to the two concerts.
Vasco took time to acknowledge and express appreciation for the fans camping out, calling them "real heroes." He also had the opportunity to see the monumental stage that will accompany him on this tour. The structure is 86 meters wide, 25 meters deep, and 28 meters high, complete with five giant screens for an immersive visual experience.
The setlist for the concert will span over four decades of Rossi's music, featuring timeless classics like "Sally," "C'è chi dice no," and "Siamo solo noi." Fans can also expect less-frequent songs, such as "Buoni o cattivi," making for a diverse and celebratory night.
Anticipation for the event has been building throughout the city, with thousands of people set to converge on the Olimpico for what promises to be one of the most anticipated musical events of the year. As the big moment approaches, Turin will once again welcome its "Komandante," while Vasco prepares for a summer filled with unforgettable concerts.
Following Turin, the Vasco Live 2025 tour will continue across Italy, with additional dates in Florence, Bologna, Naples, Messina, and Rome, among others. The tour features a blend of classic hits and medleys, offering fans a comprehensive and consistent setlist across major shows, according to enrichment data.
For the confirmed venues and dates, the setlist is heavily centered around Rossi's major hits, with the Turin show incorporating multimedia elements to enhance the concert experience. Other tour stops are expected to follow a similar format, though individual setlists may vary slightly.
