Piazza Marinai d'Italia

The enchanted summer of Borghetto Santo Spirito is preparing to experience one of its most anticipated appointments. On Tuesday, August 25, 2026 at 9:30 PM, Piazza Marinai d’Italia will host LDA & AKA7even, two of the most well-known and appreciated young artists on the Italian pop-urban music scene. An unmissable event for all live music enthusiasts, organized to give the audience an evening full of fun, great hits and contagious energy, which only great live performances can deliver. LDA, stage name of Luca D’Alessio, became known to the general public thanks to his participation in Amici, where he distinguished himself for his sensitivity and personal style capable of blending pop, R&B, and urban influences. In 2023 he took the stage at the Sanremo Festival with Se poi domani, consolidating an artistic journey that has led him to conquer an increasingly wider audience. AKA7even, stage name of Luca Marzano, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who achieved national popularity through Amici. With songs like Loca, which became one of his major successes, he has built a personal artistic path that also brought him to the Sanremo Festival stage in 2022, where he presented Perfetta così. Two paths that over time have come together and have given rise to an increasingly strong artistic and personal bond. LDA and AKA7even share not only a passion for music, but an artistic and personal connection born during their respective journeys and grown over time. From television to major stages, their roads have crossed on several occasions, leading even to the prestigious setting of the Sanremo Festival, an experience in which they were protagonists together with Poesie clandestine, a song that marked a new chapter in their shared artistic journey. The project also gave birth to their first album together, Poesie clandestine, in which pop and contemporary sounds meet influences linked to musical tradition and the roots of Southern Italy. Both have managed to conquer especially new generations, transforming their television experiences at the beginning into the starting point to build their own musical identity. Two artists, two stories and one great stage for an evening designed especially for young people, but capable of engaging audiences of all ages. The evening will have free admission, within the capacity limit provided for shows. Access controls will be in place at the entrance to the square. “We are excited to be able to host LDA & AKA7even, two young artists who represent the talent and energy of the new Italian music scene very well. It will be an evening designed for young people, but not only, with the aim of offering all citizens and many guests a moment of music and sharing in the heart of our summer. After the success of our first major event with Le Vibrazioni, we hope that this concert can also give the audience an evening of great spectacle and entertainment.” The Mayor Giancarlo Canepa

Cinema Arena Vittoria

New appointment with the Teatro nel Borgo season, Wednesday August 26th, at 21.30, guest at Cinema Arena Vittoria Raul Cremona with Raul Cremona show. In his live performance, in the form of a recital and accompanied on the piano by Gabriele Gentile, Raul Cremona proposes a surreal journey through his most beloved characters, between memories, comedy and magic. What can be said about the intolerant and very Milanese Omen, whom Raul, as a child, learned to know in a Milan that no longer exists? And then Marvello, American mentalist, with his guru Ocio Batocio, hilarious characters that resurface in a tale made of memory, invention and irresistible nonsense. During the show, Raul Cremona, with disenchantment and a touch of nostalgia, gives the audience a real carousel ride: at times dizzying, at times poetic, always surprising. A journey in which the artist reaffirms himself as that original storyteller who makes magic not only an art of illusion, but above all an extraordinary tool of narration. Magic, sleight of hand, wordplay, music, gags and comic sketches are the dominant features of a show that blends comedy and wonder, bringing back to the stage characters, atmospheres and suggestions that belong to Cremona’s long career. An evening to laugh, be surprised and return, for a few hours, to look at reality with the enchanted eyes of magic. Milanese, born in 1956, Raul Cremona approached the world of magic and illusionism from a very young age, transforming this passion over the years into a personal artistic signature, capable of blending sleight of hand, comedy and theatre. After his debut in the world of Milanese cabarets, Cremona built his own success through theatre, television and participation in numerous highly popular programs. The general public also knows him thanks to Zelig, where he performs some of his most famous characters, which have become true cult icons of Italian comedy over time. But it is especially on stage that Cremona fully expresses his vocation as an artist and storyteller: magic becomes for him a language through which to tell stories of characters, epochs and memories, with a style that alternates nonsense, irony, improvisation and poetry. With Raul Cremona Show, his surreal universe thus returns as protagonist, made up of improbable characters, wordplay, illusions and memories of a Milan that belongs to the past, but which through theatre magically comes back to life. “Raul Cremona, great guest for our Teatro nel Borgo season and interpreter of Variety Theatre, will be an unmissable appointment of this Enchanted Summer!” Performances are free admission, subject to seating availability. No reservation is required. Only entrance at Cinema via Marexiano, seaside side. The gates will be monitored.
