A year passes and the curse of the Nameless Festival: In one of the three days he must necessarily rain in Catinelle. Also last year, during the set of the Chase & Status and Steve Angello, the universe came down, a mix between Monsonic and hail rains, which ran away a lot of audience towards Molinari's tent or the first shelter available.
As always, the “doors” of the triangle from Alta Brianza, or Annone di Brianza, Oggiono And Moltenare open for the last edition in these parts, since for the 2026 we return a little to the origins, a Leccoand with an extra winter version, a Februarya Barzio (LC).
There are about ninety thousand presences of this edition, commented in this way by the founder of Nameless, Alberto Fumagalli:
I can say that we achieved the goals that we had set ourselves, first of all that of making a festival that was more beautiful to live than the previous edition. It is clear that all the choices made, even in anticipation of the future, always go in the same direction. The goal is to try to make the experience less and less stressful for people who attend the Festival and we believe we have managed to meet their needs in every area.
Alberto Fumagalli (CEO and Founder of the Nameless Festival)
What is presented in this vast lawn?
There are two entrances, one on the side of Molten and the other verse Annone di Brianzain which the twenty thousand fans of the festival can flow in a controlled way to the stages and large common areas.
From entrance B, given the movement of parking spaces for weather – the first thing that happens is the Fructis arenathe stage where the trap is the master. Further on, the landscape opens with a whole series of containers dedicated to food and drinks, but not only. On the right there is a branded stage-not stage Heinekenwhere it can listen to a further DJ marathon, while fans try to grab a Nameless edition printed on the spot; On the left, however, the most experimental and urban atmosphere of electronics with the set of the Red Bull Energy Zonewith these containers stacked as a circle and with the DJ station positioned in a slightly unclear way, at first glance.
Scrolling forward, among the various small stands of the sponsors, we finally arrive at the large crossroads: on the left the Main internshipon the right the large covered arena of the Nameless Tent Molinariwhere it hosts the best of the most energetic electronics scene, from Speed Techno to hardcore.
The main internship of the Nameless Festival
The focus major, of course, concerns what happens on the largest stage of the Festival, for the occasion – given the adverse weather conditions provided – covered by a large translucent canopy, at least for the DJ station, and three huge semi -transparent ledwalls. Finally, on the right side, compared to the stage, the Sky Box and the VIP area where you can attend the sets more exclusively, as typical of the largest European festivals.
Albert Marzinotto
The first to warm the very humid atmosphere is Albert Marzinottofrom Portogruaro, born in '89, which brings an easy house set, with also funk, disco and latin influences (like the latest single “Qué rico”, Muy Caliente).
Gladde Paling
The most hardcore is the set of Gladde Palingthe most difficult to understand: all meme tracks are the ones, with drops from huge mos, traces of at least 170-180 bpm, very short and that have brought the first great public movement to the main internship. Do you want to try a little experience? Listen “Ratata”.
Interplanetary Criminal
We go to the British scene, with Interplanetary Criminal from Manchester, which brings the right dose of UK Garage and Bass: become famous with Eliza Rose For “Bota (Baddest of Them All)”with more than three hundred million streams on Spotify and the entry into numerous world rankings because of this combination of electronics of the early 2000s and the contemporaneity of some synths used. Among other things, small parenthesis, Eliza Rose was present on the first day in the Red Bull box, before Gorgon City.
Here too, a nice hour of mixing between his original songs, such as “Yosemite” or “Damager”remix of songs that are “caught” between one cigarette and another, in his Playlist as a track IDS.
Mr. Belt & Wezol
Always on the main stage of the nameless, the duo Mr. Belt & Wezolon the crest of the wave for “It's not right but it's okay”but with also comfort zone with the remix of the greatest successes of the 70s, 80s and 90s: from “I Feel Love” Of Summer woman to “Homeless” (the original “Gypsy Woman”) by Crystal Waters. The house of the Spinnin 'Records school feels, all right. It's dinner time, the weather is still holding, despite the forecasts had given rain for three hours before this set. Indeed, a little blue and moon sky appears shyly.
Bunt.
One of the most engaging DJs of all the main internships, with low hands: BuntGerman DJ born in '96, not only did he bring this a little folk to manage the Electronic Music, but above all, at the end of the set he abandoned the stage to jump in the middle of the crowd and dance with them, with the cameraman who makes a great effort to follow him (and it was fun to see the live result transmitted by the Ledwalls). His style recalls a lot Fred Again ..and it is crazy how he has not yet passed in Italy: he turns his voice that will play on September 7 in Naples, but better not to raise his voice too much.
Black
THE Black They are among the most awaited on the main internship, given their rather long -lived career, but also fresh to return after six years. A lesson by Dubstep and drum and bass sharp, who knows of nostalgic, with sensational drops and which create Moshpit from one part of the parterre to the other. Do you want to try an experience? Put in the ears, at Massimo Volume, everything “Welcome reality”.
The Chainsmokers
At 22:30 precise, Drew Taggart And Alex Pallas well as known as The Chainsmokersfinally rise to the stage of the Nameless Festival, among the short universal flood which unfortunately did not spare this edition. But it doesn't matter.
The instrumental version of “Roses”who turns the beauty of ten years (but literally seems to come out the day before yesterday), accompanies the American duo, with the public intoning the part of Rozes without any scruple. From here the set starts with a nice interlacing among their greatest successes. As “#Selfie” (which brings us back to those Vibes from first iPhones and wine to make short videos), “Closer” – with the launch of Halsey's career e “Paris”as well as the remixes of fresh songs, like “That's So True” Of Gracie Abrams or “Messy” Of Lola Young. Nobody stops, not even with mud and puddles under the feet. The ending, fortunately finished rain, with “Something Just Like This”another great success with i Coldplaywas very evocative and exciting, with the fireworks to determine the goodbye to the next edition of the Nameless.
The Nameless Tent Molinari
The second internship of the Nameless is obviously the fertile ground for the most pushed electronic music, by the hard trance of Zapravka At the Hitelo-German techno Stella Bossito move on to the most hardstyle and hardcore of Luca Agnelli. Thousands of people under the tent with this black semicircular canopy, excellent both to make the climate almost apart from the rest of the festival, and to “take refuge” in case of weather.
The fructis arena
In the Fructis arenaFinally, the focus is more dedicated to trap and rap music, with a mixture of emerging, such as Dobro (Nikolla Dobrozi), emerged, like Suspect CB or 22simbaor, again, the top players of the moment like Very black snake And Pope V. A succession of rapper accompanied by their DJs who carry on the ten -year tradition of rap on one of the stages of the Nameless Festival.
What will be from 2026 by Nameless Festival?
There is already something more than sketched. The Nameless Festival moves from the three municipalities, Annone di Brianza, Oggiono and Molteno, towards the capital, Leccoas to the origins – From 30 May 2026 to 1 June 2026. But not only that, the weekend of Valentine's Day (14 and 15 February 2026) will also be filled by an unprecedented winter version a Barzio (LC)among the mountains of the Valsassina, and which hosted the Nameless Summer Festival from 2015 to 2019. Tickets for the next edition will be available from Thursday 5 June at 12:00 on the Festival website. And it is already immediately hype …
