The highly anticipated ChorusLife Arena in Bergamo which recently opened has welcomed its first high-profile international entertainment act, ushering in a new era for live entertainment in Italy.
Supported by Legends and ASM Global, the brand-new venue has already garnered acclaim with a capacity below 7,000. At 5,000 capacity, ChorusLife Arena has been designed to offer an atmosphere that is both intimate yet electrifying, setting a new standard for arenas in the country.
The event took place on Thursday 13 March, with a spectacular sold-out performance from Sam Fender, marking his only Italian tour date this year and the first international act to grace the arena’s stage. Tickets for the show sold out two months in advance, demonstrating the huge demand for world-class live entertainment in the region.
Joe Rizzello, Vice President & General Manager of ASM Global Italy, said: “ChorusLife Arena is a game changer for Italy’s live entertainment scene. We’re thrilled to welcome fans to this world-class venue, starting with what was a simply unforgettable night featuring the incredible Sam Fender. 2025 is already looking like a huge year for the ChorusLife Arena, with close to 100 events already booked – a true record for Italian arenas of this size.”
The arena is part of the innovative ChorusLife district project, a modern urban redevelopment initiative aimed at blending entertainment, technology and community spaces. Designed with the guest experience at its core, the Arena at ChorusLife offers best-in-class facilities, cutting-edge acoustics and a selection of premium hospitality areas. The venue’s versatility and state-of-the-art back of house facilities allow it to host a wide range of events, from music concerts and sporting spectacles to corporate events and more. Every detail has been meticulously crafted to provide an unparalleled entertainment experience, making it a must-visit destination for both artists and fans alike.
Following this week’s international kick off, the arena is now expected to host an exciting lineup of events, further cementing its reputation as a premier entertainment hub in Italy.
