Vasco Rossi and Diego Spagnoli end 44-year professional partnership

Italian rock star Vasco Rossi has announced the end of his long-standing professional collaboration with stage manager Diego Spagnoli. The partnership, which began in 1982, spanned 44 years and covered numerous monumental tours and stadium concerts.

Spagnoli, originally from Brescia, served as a crucial technical coordinator for Rossi’s live productions, managing the complex stage operations and behind-the-scenes logistics that defined the artist's large-scale performances. Rossi communicated the conclusion of their working relationship via social media in October 2026.
