Now in its fifteenth year, the Tener-a-Mente Vittoriale Festival is one of the most eagerly awaited cultural events of the Italian summer. Hosted at the Vittoriale degli Italiani complex on Lake Garda, the festival combines music, culture and a scenic setting in a unique immersive experience. Over the years, it has forged a clear artistic identity founded on independence, quality and high-profile international programming.
 

The 2026 line-up offers a journey through different genres. From the indie folk proposed by Of Monsters and Men to the Beat project with Adrian Belew, Tony Levin, Steve Vai and Danny Carey, which grew out of a reinterpretation of King Crimson albums. And there’s plenty of room for jazz too with Esperanza Spalding, Diana Krall and the Bollani All Stars, while Italian singer-songwriters are represented by Daniele Silvestri, Coez and Niccolò Fabi. The international artists include LP and Chet Faker, with Kings of Convenience and the Two Door Cinema Club rounding out the line-up.
 

Franciacorta Designer Village is once again supporting this year’s Tener-a-Mente Festival as technical sponsor.
