Estate Fiorentina 2026: The must-see events between August and September
From August to September 2026

With the Estate Fiorentina 2026 program, August and September offer a series of concerts, shows, exhibitions, and cultural events that make every stay even more special. Summer is one of the most fascinating seasons to discover Florence. The days get longer, the squares come alive at sunset, and the city transforms into an enormous open-air stage.
Choosing Florence during this period means an authentic experience of the city: A walk among the illuminated monuments, an evening of music under the stars, and the pleasure of returning to the tranquillity of your suite in the heart of the historic centre.
Concerts, shows, and major events with Estate Fiorentina 2026
The Estate Fiorentina 2026 calendar offers events for all tastes.
Among the most awaited events are the performances at the Fiesole Roman Theatre, one of the most evocative locations in the Florentine area. On 3 August, the stage will host the ballet La Vie en Rose… Bolero, while 4 August will star Thony, accompanied by the Orchestra Multietnica di Arezzo.
Forte di Belvedere also continues to symbolise the Florentine cultural summer, with multi-disciplinary exhibitions and free concerts. Among the events to mark on your calendar, the famous jazz trombonist Glenn Ferris and guitarist Giulio Stracciati will perform on 26 August.
For sports fans, August also coincides with the beginning of the new Serie A season: Fiorentina returns to play at the Stadio Artemio Franchi against Como on 23 August.
Just a few more days for the must-see exhibitions in Florence
Summer is also the perfect time to visit some of the city’s most important exhibitions. Until 23 August, it is still possible to admire the exhibition dedicated to Mark Rothko at Palazzo Strozzi, while Palazzo Medici Riccardi hosts the Firenze Déco exhibition until 25 August, dedicated to one of the most elegant periods of the city’s artistic history.
