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.

Joining the headliners on the second day will be Subsonica, ready to present their new album Terre Rare, and Planet Funk, the legendary Italian electronic band returning with the album Boom.

There is also great anticipation for the live performance by Pellegrino Dance Rituals, a project that blends electronic music, funk, jazz and Mediterranean sounds into an original and captivating musical experience.

The music will continue between concerts thanks to DJ sets by artists such as Addolorata, Esco X Bellettini, Yum, Yab Killer, Karlove, Curcio, Giuseppe Fava and Obbi, who will be bringing the festival venues to life over the two days. One of the most interesting new features of Noisy Naples Fest 2026 is the After Show series, hosted in the foyer of the Arena Flegrea. Here, the audience will be able to take part in exclusive events featuring DJ sets by Editors, San Juno, the French producer MYD and the Soul Express Soundsystem.

For those looking for a premium experience, the new Martini Lounge Area will be available – a panoramic terrace situated within the Gold Pit, offering dedicated services, exclusive comforts and a prime view of the stage. The innovative Noisy Wave Experience combines the sea, relaxation and music. The package includes access to the Lido Rocce Verdi, parking, a continental breakfast and a kayaking excursion before entering the festival. In addition to the two main days, the 2026 programme features further concerts at the Arena Flegrea with artists such as Eduardo De Crescenzo, Goran Bregović, Eugenio Bennato, Litfiba and Capo Plaza. The festival is organised by Make It Happen under the patronage of the City of Naples’ Department of Tourism as part of the ‘Naples, City of Music’ project.
