Pesaro, Record Arena: in 2024 almost 45 thousand spectators and 15 events already scheduled for 2025, the Auditorium will host 12 including conventions, shows, conferences and sporting events

Growing numbers and positive balance, the Vitrifrigo Arena is a record-breaking one: this is what the data presented yesterday morning by the mayor Andrea Biancani, the councillor for Culture Daniele Vimini and the president of Aspes Luca Pieri say, reporting a steady increase in the last 3 years: "In 2024, the over 270 thousand spectators mark a significant leap forward with 44.730 more attendees than the 225.350 of 2023. The stands and parterres were packed, therefore, in the 36 events of last year including concerts, conventions and sports that occupied the Arena, including set-ups and duration of shows, for 223 days out of 365.».

To maintain the positive trend, the 2025 and 2026 program of the Vitrifrigo Arena includes a calendar of sports, concerts, conventions and shows, including those already on the bill by Giorgia, whose tour will land on December 12, 2025, and Olly, the new winner of Sanremo, whose Pesaro stop will be on March 13, 2026, to which other events will be added, some of which are currently top secret due to the confidentiality contracts in place. «Excluding basketball matches, which already occupy a good part of the Arena's schedule, 2025 events are scheduled for the next few months of 15, while 11 are, for the moment, those of 2026.", they specify.

«After the great success of Jovanotti, who also doubled the attendance inside the city's cultural venues, the one with Giorgia is another important piece of a mosaic that will be completed in the coming months – Biancani, Vimini and Pieri say -. It is certain however that the offer of two structures such as the Arena and the Auditorium, make Pesaro an increasingly important point of reference at a national level».

It is no coincidence that the program of the Scavolini Auditorium – managed by Aspes – already has 12 events scheduled for the next few months of 2025 and 4 planned for the first half of 2026. For the 2025 and 2026 years, 25 days are confirmed in which entertainment, sports and conventions will take place, with numbers that will increase in the coming weeks. To this must be added the events dedicated to the Rossini Opera Festival which, between installations and performances, occupies the spaces of the structure from June to mid-September. «At the moment, for 2025, an Italian fencing championship is planned (in June), five shows, four conventions and two medical congresses. In total, we are talking – between Vitrifrigo Arena and the Auditorium – of 27 events for 2025 that will be implemented in the following year», they specify.

Thanks to further checks carried out, the Scavolini Auditorium has become "a modular structure that can be adapted to multiple events in different sectors, being able to accommodate up to 1400 seats. Even if - Biancani announces - the goal will be to increase the seats up to about 2 people". The program presented this morning also meets the requests of operators in the hospitality sector who "will now be able to organize themselves, from time to time, for the hospitality of these important events that will bring income to the city. A fundamental driving force for the economy with an entrepreneurial direction". Not only Vitrifrigo and the Auditorium "but we are ready to make Piazza del Popolo available for summer concerts dedicated to young people and not only", conclude Biancani and Vimini.
