Noisy Naples Fest: Naples, the capital of rock, featuring Franz Ferdinand and Kasabian
On 23 and 24 July, the two dates of the festival featuring Skunk Anansie, Bluevertigo, Subsonica and Planet Funk
Great rock music returns to the Mostra d’Oltremare in Naples, as the Noisy Naples Fest returns for its ninth edition: on stage on 23 and 24 July, featuring acts ranging from Franz Ferdinand to Kasabian, and from Bluvertigo to Subsonica, in the new, evocative setting of Viale delle 28 Fontane, transformed for the occasion into a huge music festival village.
The 2026 edition introduces a new format that enhances the audience experience with more concerts each day, dedicated entertainment areas, food and drink zones, DJ sets and exclusive areas, allowing visitors to enjoy the festival in an even more immersive way.
Among the event’s headline acts are Franz Ferdinand, who will be performing on 23 July in their first-ever concert in Naples. The famous Scottish band, fronted by Alex Kapranos, will take to the stage to perform tracks from their recent album The Human Fear, alongside the greatest hits that have defined the last twenty years of international rock.
On the same day, Skunk Anansie – the legendary British band fronted by Skin – will also take to the stage, alongside Bluvertigo, who are reuniting for one of the most eagerly awaited dates on their summer tour. Rounding off the line-up will be British producer Grove and an exclusive DJ set from Virgin Radio.
On 24 July, it will be the turn of Kasabian, headlining the only Italian date on their 2026 tour. The British band returns to Noisy following their success in 2018, bringing their new album Act III to the stage.
