Milan Summer in the name of Music

With the beginning of summer, Milan is preparing to experience a vibrant music season, with a rich series of concerts and events that will transform the city into an open-air stage. The main performance venues, including the San Siro Stadium and the Ippodromo SNAI La Maura and SNAI San Siro, will host a long sequence of performances that will attract thousands of fans, eager to see their favourite artists. Starting in June, the city will become a must-see destination for fans, with several big names from the national and international music scene, some of whom have chosen Milan as the only Italian stop on their tours.

I-Days Milano Coca Cola

First of all, the highly -awaited music festival that captures the hearts of music fans every year is back: I-DAYS Milano Coca-Cola. Born in Bologna in 1999 and later moved to Milan in 2009, the originally known Independent Days Festival has become over the years one of the most important events on the Italian and international music scene. The event has managed to establish itself as the main reference point for rock, indie and pop genres, earning a solid reputation thanks to the record-breaking numbers recorded by the latest editions, which have seen ever-increasing participation.

The I-DAYS Milan is not just a festival, but a true all-round celebration of music, which every year welcomes some of the biggest names on the world music scene. Throughout the summer, the event transforms the spaces of the Ippodromo SNAI La Maura and SNAI San Siro into meeting places for thousands of fans from all over Italy and the world. More than 100,000 people will crowd the concert areas, to attend the extraordinary performances of internationally renowned artists, who will give unforgettable performances and moments of pure musical energy. With a line-up full of global stars, I-DAYS Milan represents a unique experience that not only celebrates music, but also the meeting and sharing of collective emotions, making the city one of the most sought-after destinations for every lover of good live music.

The 2025 edition promises to be truly unmissable, with a cast of international artists that will light up the Milanese summer. Stars of the calibre of Dua Lipa, Justin Timberlake and Olivia Rodrigo will be gracing the stages, but that’s not all. The return of Linkin Park and Duran Duran is highly -expected, and the musical season will end at the end of August with Post Malone. These are some of the names that will animate the event, meeting the tastes of a wide audience that ranges from rock to rap, passing through the most engaging pop. Although it is difficult to decide which of these concerts is the most eagerly awaited, the return to Italy of Linkin Park and Duran Duran certainly represents a unique occasion, especially for the most loyal fans who have been trying to grab the best seats for months now. The presence of these iconic groups, who have written memorable pages in music history, will undoubtedly be one of the highlights of the 2025 edition. The thrill of seeing them live again, after years of waiting, will be an unforgettable experience, capable of arousing the enthusiasm and emotion of thousands of fans.

Bruce Springsteen and more

The summer of 2025 promises to be historic for music in Italy and, in particular, in Milan. After the return of Linkin Park and Duran Duran, another international music giant has announced his concert in the city: Bruce Springsteen, the legendary Boss. Initially planned for 2024, but postponed to 2025 for health reasons, the two highly anticipated concerts will be held on 30 June and 3 July at the San Siro Stadium, both already sold out.

The Springsteen concert will not be the only big musical event hosted at the San Siro stadium, a rich programme of artists will take place on one of Italy’s most iconic stages. Among the stars not to be missed: Elodie, Marracash, Marco Mengoni, Ultimo, Elisa and many others.

But the music will not be limited to concerts: from June, in fact, the Milano Latin Festival will also kick off, with a series of appointments under the banner of reggaeton and new Latin music, with the participation of international stars such as Ozuna, Prince Royce and Grupo Extra.

In other words, this Milanese summer promises to be explosive for music lovers, with events spanning genres and styles to satisfy every musical taste. Milan, already one of the capitals of design and fashion, will also confirm itself as the beating heart of music. The city will welcome thousands of fans and music lovers from all over Italy and abroad, wishing to combine their passion for music with discovering the city. In this scenario, Hotel VIU Milan is the ideal choice. Thanks to its strategic location, just a few steps from the lilac metro line towards San Siro and the vibrant areas of Garibaldi and Corso Como, guests will be able to move easily and comfortably between the various areas of the city, living the Milanese experience in all its intensity.
