Frega Festival 2025: Set in the heart of Fontanellato, Italy, Frega Festival offers a truly unique environment for electronic music lovers: the world’s largest bamboo labyrinth, Labirinto della Masone.
Spanning 7 hectares and surrounded by over 200,000 bamboo plants, this extraordinary space becomes a living, breathing dance floor — a natural maze transformed into a stage for artistic immersion.
Frega Festival is co-curated by a trio of forward-thinking creatives — Gabriele Capponi, Mattia Koväl, and Pre Silent — who bring a shared commitment to electronic innovation and social responsibility. Together, they’ve shaped an ethical festival that goes beyond music to become a cultural experience rooted in inclusivity and experimentation.
A Manifesto of Inclusion: Dance floor Sensibile
At the heart of Frega Festival lies its guiding principle: Dance floor Sensibile. This manifesto envisions a dance floor that is open, respectful, and radically inclusive. The goal is to create a safe space where diversity is not just accepted but celebrated, and where no one is ever left out — a powerful stance in today’s cultural landscape.
The festival is also the official launch of the Dance Floor Sensibile project, which has recently been selected by the European Live MX Grant for its innovation in accessibility and digital transformation within the music sector.
Backed by this grant, the project introduces:
The Club Advisor digital platform, helping people find truly accessible venues across Europe
A new wave of educational tools and awareness programs for club staff and communities
A continental initiative to build a network of inclusive clubs and events, ensuring nightlife is a space for all
Where Sound, Space, and Art Intersect
Frega Festival isn’t just about the music — it’s about the full sensory experience. Every element, from the line-up to the layout, is designed to foster connection between people, sound, and environment. Music, visual art, and architecture merge in unexpected ways, turning the bamboo labyrinth into an evolving canvas for expression and exploration.
Frega Festival 2025 proudly features some of the world’s most respected techno artists, all of whom are participating in solidarity with the cause of accessibility and inclusion.
The musical journey begins with Blind Date, moves through Elisa Bee and Pre Silent, and reaches its peak with a legendary B2B by Ben Klock and Marcel Dettmann, before continuing with Gabriele Capponi, BLANKA, and Nastia, and concluding with a deep and powerful closing set by Koväl.
