After last year’s success of Nameless Festival, which we covered as press and which with over 90 thousand attendees confirmed its great cultural, economic and social impact, CEO Alberto Fumagalli revealed the first news of 2026 at the press conference held at Organics by RedBull SkyGarden in Milan!

From Nameless Festival Winter, on February 14th and 15th in Barzio (LC) during Milano-Cortina 2026 in the location where the festival was born for an immersive, more intimate experience focused on electronic roots, to the new initiative Lake Como Music Week, which from May 26th to June 1st will anticipate the summer edition with a week of activities, side events, showcases and talks spread across the territory.

Music at the center, emotions and human connections: after the success of the 2025 edition, which with over 90 thousand attendees confirmed the great impact of the event on a cultural, economic and social level, Nameless Festival, which will take place from May 30th to June 1st at the new “Bione” venue in Lecco, reveals the first news of 2026.

As previously announced, next year the Festival appointment will be double: Saturday February 14th and Sunday February 15th in Barzio (LC) will host Nameless Winter Edition. An idea born from the desire to offer a more intimate, immersive experience focused on the electronic roots of the Festival. The winter edition will feature an artistic selection designed for an audience attentive to the most current sounds but always with an eye on the right atmosphere, with the goal of creating connections with the community and an increasingly close relationship with those who have followed the Festival for years and shaped its DNA. Inaugurating the lineup is world-famous DJ Axwell.

Nameless Festival, furthermore, is preparing to expand its boundaries for the new year: the 2026 edition will be anticipated by Lake Como Music Week, a special widespread event that will take place from May 26th to June 1st. A week of activities, side events, showcases and talks spread across the territory of the city of Lecco and beyond, all organized in a unique and world-famous context and landscape: that of Lake Como. An initiative that is the result of a clear vision: to offer an authentic, contemporary and inclusive musical experience, capable of representing the different souls of the Festival while maintaining a balance between innovation and artistic coherence. The only constant remains the desire to give the audience, which has always been the true added value of the Festival, the most complete, satisfying and exciting experience possible.

A new additional chapter in the history of Nameless Festival, which demonstrates how the event is always in continuous evolution and never the same as itself, while strongly tied to the places where it was born, which it has always sought to enhance to the fullest. In this sense, the numbers speak for themselves: the last edition had an impact on the territory equal to 11 million euros and confirmed how the Festival is a driving force for the entire local economy and a powerful tool for tourism promotion. In this regard, in 2023 Nameless Festival allowed the Municipality of Annone di Brianza (LC) to be included in the Top 10 trending destinations for Italians on vacation compiled by Airbnb. This year, instead, Nameless Srl ranked in the Top 20 of the “Growth Leaders 2025” ranking compiled by Il Sole 24 Ore and Statista and conquered first position among companies operating in the live events sector.

Nameless Festival has demonstrated, over time, that it can grow constantly, both from the point of view of numbers and quality of the offer. In this sense, the audience speaks: 87% of participants in the 2025 edition, in fact declared they intend to purchase a ticket for the next edition; 75%, instead, stated they want to buy the package to participate in both the 2026 edition of Nameless Festival and Nameless Winter Edition. An event capable of attracting a heterogeneous audience of men (51%) and women (49%) and an extremely young target (37% of participants are aged between 21 and 25 and 33% between 26 and 30), demonstrating how the Festival is able to keep up with the times with a musical offer that is always current and diversified, capable at the same time of satisfying all musical tastes and remaining true to itself.

Online also the 2025 aftermovie, the exciting story of an edition that recorded over 90 thousand attendees in 3 days and with which the Festival consolidated its importance at a national and international level, demonstrating once again that it can offer the audience an increasingly fulfilling experience.
