The ELBA ISOLA MUSICALE D’EUROPA Festival is more than an international event of excellence: it is the ideal opportunity for those in quest of authenticity to experience the magic of music, amplified by a beautiful natural stage, far from the background noise that dominates our time.
In the heart of the National Park of the Tuscan Archipelago, musicians from all over the world meet every year since 1997 to share the re-creation of musical masterpieces of all times in an unparalleled context, inspired by an extraordinarily luxuriant and welcoming land, a magical place steeped in history, where the enchantment of the landscape naturally blends in with the art and a simple way of life, in harmony with nature.
