FestiValle returns from 7 to 10 August in the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento with 10 Years Togetherthe tenth anniversary edition. New names have now been added to the already announced line up – Ezra Collective, Apparat live band, Greentea Peng, Cory Henry & The Funk Apostles, Octave One, Mind Enterprises, Orchester Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp – completing one of the most ambitious programs in the history of the festival, including jazz, electronic, funk and club culture.
Among the most anticipated additions is Mace, who signs the night DJ set on the aftershow stage overlooking the temples after the opening of Ezra Collective. The aftershow program is completed with Yu Su, one of the most refined producers of new international electronic music, the Belgian duo Lander & Adriaan on their only Italian date, the French collective Il Est Vilaine making their debut in Italy and, to symbolically close the tenth anniversary, a DJ set by Raffaele Costantino after the Apparat concert.
Concerts at sunset on the circular stage overlooking the Temple of the Dioscuri, now a distinctive feature of the festival, have also been confirmed: Sorvina, the Brazilian Munir Hossn with the new project Mystic Samba, and The Josh Barry Experience, making his Italian debut, will perform. The Salerno-based Banda Maje arrives on the Main Stage, presenting their new album, and the Los Angeles-based Butter Funk Family led by Printz Board. On the evening of August 8, before Mind Enterprises and Octave One, Fabio Celenza – who is celebrating ten years of his career with a live band and site-specific screenings – and Le Feste Antonacci will perform.
The Awakening of the Gods also turns ten, the choral performance at dawn at the Tempio della Concordia with over thirty artists involved. Also confirmed are the FestiValle Beach in San Leone, every day from 12pm to 4pm, and the cultural format Clan Acustico, curated by Raffaele Costantino.
