2026 La Notte della Taranta tour

Overview

The itinerant edition of the La Notte della Taranta festival launched in July 2026, planning twenty stops across the Salento peninsula. The rollout was announced for multiple towns, and on 27 July the Castello di Corigliano d'Otranto hosted a preview of the Salento Jazz festival, featuring the Antidote trio (percussion, piano, cello) with Mediterranean and Middle‑Eastern influences. Three days later, on 30 July, the first stop of the Taranta tour took place in Corigliano d'Otranto.

Both events received support from Regione Puglia and local authorities, underscoring the region’s role as a hub for contemporary and traditional Mediterranean music.
