Bar Futura presents "Fuori Futura" The collaboration with Live in Chiostri creates an opportunity to experience the city in a different way

On Saturday, June 20, Bar Futura presents Fuori Futura, a special event that brings the project outdoors to kick off the summer season. The street in front of the bar will be transformed into a space for gathering, where sharing, music, and contemporary culture come together in an informal yet curated atmosphere, where sonic exploration and neighborhood life meet without filters.

The event takes place within the context of Live in Chiostri, the live music festival now in its fourth edition, which on June 19 and 20 will animate the Chiostri di San Pietro with artists such as Giorgio Poi, Dimartino, Marta del Grandi, and many others. Over three years, the festival has grown from 650 to 2,000 attendees, building a real and loyal community. It is not just a music festival, but a urban regeneration project and an initiative for social cohesion, promoted by ARCI Reggio Emilia, Consorzio Quarantacinque, and Fondazione Palazzo Magnani, with the belief that live music can become a permanent tool of cultural welfare. Fuori Futura shares this spirit of accessibility and care, bringing it directly into the street.

Adding to the special nature of the day is the collaboration with the Chiostri di San Pietro within the Live in Chiostri program. The music will begin at 12 PM with a DJ set by Luca Giovanardi, vocalist and founder of Julie’s Haircut, as well as writer and composer of soundtracks - including that of the documentary Una Fossa di Nebbia Appena Fonda, for which he received the MEI Museo della Resistenza Ca’ di Malanca award in 2011. His set will be a curated selection conceived as a narrative through a contemporary sonic perspective.

The second part of the day will be entrusted to Hate Moss, an Italo-Brazilian electro-clash duo based in London and one of the most original acts of the new European independent scene. Their sound blends pop punk, electronic music, and DIY aesthetics, drawing inspiration from both Brazilian and Italian popular music traditions.

The partner of the initiative is nss magazine, which will distribute its Reggio Emilia City Guide for free: a publication designed to read the city beyond traditional tourist guides, offering a contemporary perspective on its creative energies and lesser-known places.
