Festivals and cultural events Turin

A week of jazz with many talented artists: this is the goal of the Torino Jazz Festival, organized every year since 2012. Since 2018, the festival is held in the OGR, the recently renovated Officine Grandi Riparazioni, as well as in other great venues in Turin. Recognized on the European music scene, this festival offers, in addition to the many solo performances and jam sessions, concerts in the city's clubs or in places normally kept closed. Something for jazz lovers to enjoy!

Every year, Turin hosts the largest modern and contemporary art event in Italy. Artissima is an international fair, similar to the Fiac in Paris. A must-attend event for professionals, gallery owners, collectors and artists who often welcome the art-loving public, the four days are packed with discoveries. Since its first edition in 1994, Artissima has made a point of encouraging experimentation and research, highlighting emerging artists and current trends.

Created in Turin in 1978, this classical music festival is organized, since 2007, in partnership with Milan. For three weeks in September, the public can choose, in either city, concerts of high quality, with tickets at low prices. Auditoriums, churches, courtyards and squares transform the two historic cities into a huge musical parterre, where one can listen to symphonic music, chamber music and soloists. Each year the festival gathers about 30 000 music lovers. Shows are also planned for the young public.
