After last year’s first edition, Panorama has become a festival itinerary, with five dates spread over three venues between the Itria Valley and Salento: Monopoli Biella Arena, Salento Arena in Santa Cesarea Terme (concert arena of the Guendalina Club) and in Macrame Monopoly. This year the Panorama Festival bears the slogan “August Around Apulia” and offers a unique experience that combines the world’s best DJs, the magic of electronic music, the pristine beauty of the surrounding places, excellent local cuisine and much more.
Saturday 12 August 2023 (from 11pm), the Monopoli Biella Arena in Chapter (Bari) has Solomun, the only Italian summer date in southern Italy this year. For more than 15 years, the DJ and producer has been an absolute reference for his sound and his musical selection. His Solomon+1 party at Pacha has always been a must-see in the Ibizan summer, as have his sets at festivals such as Coachella, Exit and Time Warp, and clubs around the world from Los Angeles to Shanghai. Their sets take place at the brand new and ultra-technological Monopoly Biella Arena, just a stone’s throw from the sea. Monopoli really has a lot to offer: the heavenly beaches of Cala Porto, Cala Monasi and Cala Paradiso, with their crystal clear waters and hidden coves, its historic center featuring picturesque streets, historic churches and the grand palace of Charles V Not to mention the port.
