Waiting for the events of Vivi-Parco in the San Rossore Regional Park

The countdown is on for the ViviParco 2026 environmental and cultural festival, which will bring the Park to life at the start of summer with special events from Viareggio to Pisa.

It kicks off on Friday 26 and Saturday 27 June at the Belvedere Puccini in Torre del Lago with ‘Acqua, navigare la musica’ (Water: sailing through music), a double bill at sunset and at dawn the following day featuring an electronic music event. Participants will be given noise-cancelling headphones and will take their places on rowing boats or electric boats.
On Friday, the evening begins at 8.30 pm with a tribute to Maestro Puccini and his connection to Lake Massaciuccoli. The voices of the soloists from the Puccini Festival will transport the audience back to the atmosphere of a place that continues to live on through its history and music.

On Saturday 27 June at 4.30 am, the public will be welcomed, and from 5.00 am the electronic sounds of Luca Beat, Friedrich D and Tore DJ will accompany the sunrise in a musical journey crafted in harmony with the surroundings. Voices and sound effects will guide the audience on a symbolic journey in which water continues to represent the generative force behind the experience.
