Piazza Napoleone in Numbers
LUCCA · TUSCANY
Italy's Most Beautiful Summer Festival
Commissioned in 1806 by Napoleon's sister Elisa Baciocchi, Piazza Napoleone — locally Piazza Grande — is the social heart of Lucca's walled centre. Since 1998 it has hosted every July the Lucca Summer Festival, with capacity ranging from 6,000 to 12,000 across an open-air, plane-tree-shaded layout that few other Italian concert venues can match.
Past line-ups span Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, David Bowie and James Brown. The 2026 edition brings David Byrne, Ronnie Wood, John Legend and Tom Jones, plus a symphonic gala by Riccardo Muti.
Lucca rail station is a 10-minute walk through Porta San Pietro; by car, A11 to Lucca Est and park outside the walls. Best dates sell out months ahead.
