Welcome to the L'Acqua in Testa 2027 in Bari

Program & Schedule: What to Expect in 2027
The exact programme and dates for 2027 are not yet known (TBA). In previous editions the festival typically took place over one to three evenings, often in September or surrounding months, featuring international or national headliners and support acts. Events focused on live music, sometimes complemented by DJ sets and accompanying offers. The venue was traditionally seaside (e.g. Molo San Nicola or comparable waterfront areas, or the Fiera del Levante). Once official dates and the line-up are released, interested visitors should check the organisers’ channels (including Bass Culture).

Visitor Tips: Travel & Accommodation in Bari
- Arrive by plane at Bari Airport or by train at the main station; the city and waterfront are well served by public transport and walkable.
- Light but weatherproof clothing is recommended – evenings by the sea can be cooler and windier.
- Book accommodation in the old town (Bari Vecchia), by the harbour or in the centre early, especially in high season.
- The seaside location and proximity to the old town invite a combined visit with walks and food stops.
- Regularly check official announcements for dates, venue and programme, as these remain TBA for 2027.
