Barbera d'Asti meets music and changes pace: Nizza è Barbera 2025 is renewed with an even richer and livelier edition, ready to conquer enthusiasts and the curious from 9 to 12 May.

The heart of the event remains the Barbera Forum , under the historic Foro Boario, where over 70 producers will present for tasting more than 400 labels of Barbera d'Asti docg and Nizza docg. But this year there is something new that will make your heart beat even faster: “Nizza, Barbera & Music” , a new format created in collaboration with Collisioni Festival , which brings three stages to Nizza and a busy calendar of free concerts and DJ sets.

Kicking off the party on Friday 9 May will be a live show by Eiffel 65 , the legendary band from Blue (Da Ba Dee) , a worldwide success that is still iconic today. On Saturday night, the spotlight will be on Voglio Tornare negli Anni 90 , an overwhelming show with music, special effects and choreography, preceded by Tuttafuffa . And again: Molinaro & El Paris , Avanzi di Balera , Sciarada Party Rock Band , Kama , DJ Fabri Violino , DJ Cugi , AuTobuskers and many others will liven up the squares in the centre, with live music and DJ sets until late at night.

Also in Nice for the big event will be Molinaro & El Paris , Dj Fabri Violino , Dj Cugi and the AuTobuskers, the band led by Davide Costantini who reinterprets Italian music from the 50s to today in an original way.

For the little ones, on Sunday 11 May , it will be the turn of Crazy Magic Sunday , a great magic gala in Piazza del Comune with much-loved magicians and artists, such as Mago Budinì , the ventriloquist Gi&Raf and the imaginative Mago Contini .

The food and wine experience will be at the heart of the event as always, with the Signora in Rosso – Osteria Vineria ready to welcome the public with lunches and dinners at the tasting counter. The streets of the center will once again host the Notte Bianca , the Wine Points with labels for tasting, and the local street food curated by the Pro Loco and the merchants of Nizza è Artigianato e Commercio.

Among the experiences not to be missed: Sunday by bike among the vineyards of Nizza , the Ferrari and Supercar gathering , the food market and two special vertical tastings dedicated to the old vintages of Nizza DOCG, Sunday and Monday.

" Nizza è Barbera is much more than an event: it is a way of experiencing wine, the territory, conviviality - underlines the mayor Simone Nosenzo - The 2025 edition strongly relaunches the international vocation of our city, speaking to an increasingly younger and passionate audience ".

" We have built a format that combines quality, culture, music and entertainment - adds Mauro Damerio, president of the Enoteca Regionale di Nizza - with services designed for visitors, such as shuttles and camping areas, to experience everything in safety ."
