While the concept of a pub with regular musical programming originated in Britain, it has firmly established itself in Italian cities since the 2000s. In Milan, Turin, Rome, Florence, and Naples, dozens of birrerie and pubs programme live concerts every week: rock, jazz, soul, international covers, tribute bands. The audience is young, open to musical diversity, and evening consumption creates a commercial setting favourable to musicians.
What makes the Italian market particularly attractive for French-speaking or bilingual musicians: it is less saturated than France or the UK. Competition is lower, venue owners are open to European artists bringing a touch of originality, and demand for international-Italian repertoire (French chansons, American jazz, English rock) is genuine. The 420 venues in this pack have been identified for their regular musical programming — they are not simply ordinary bars.
This pack of 420 verified contacts (at €39) is ideal for:
Italian pubs programme all year. Peak attendance is in autumn-winter (October-March), when indoor evenings are most popular. Summer is more variable: some pubs close or slow down in August (Ferragosto), while others benefit from summer tourism to programme more. For a first approach, September-October is the ideal time to send your emails.
An email in Italian is significantly more effective than one in French or English. Have your prospecting email translated if necessary — it is an investment that multiplies your response rate. Attach a live performance video link, preferably in a pub or bar setting (similar atmosphere to the venue you are approaching). Our prospecting service can help you prepare professional emails in Italian.
The most requested format in Italian birrerie is a 2 x 45-minute set with a break. Owners appreciate artists who offer a varied setlist, including a few recognisable Italian classics (Volare, Azzurro, Le Meteore, L'Estate…) mixed with international classics. Themed evenings (French Night, Jazz Night, Beatles Night) work particularly well and justify communication on the bar's social media channels.

Yes, especially in large, highly international cities like Milan and Florence. Pub owners appreciate artists who bring a fresh touch. A French duo playing Brel and Piaf in a Milanese birreria is an original proposition that can work very well. What matters is having an accessible mixed repertoire and communicating in Italian.
The pack mainly covers major cities: Milan (the most active city for live music), Turin, Genoa, Florence, Rome, and Naples. Mid-sized cities such as Bologna, Verona, Padua, and Brescia are also represented. The Excel file lets you filter by city or region to plan your itinerary.
For occasional performances, a French musician can generally work in Italy under their French status (auto-entrepreneur, intermittent du spectacle, SARL) by issuing an invoice with intra-EU VAT. For extended stays or regular income, it is advisable to consult an accountant specialised in Franco-Italian tax matters. Italian pubs are used to working with non-resident artists.
Absolutely. Even if you already know a few venues, this pack gives you access to 420 verified establishments across all of Italy, many of which you will not yet know. It is the most efficient way to quickly expand your network and fill a tour calendar without spending weeks manually searching on Google Maps and Facebook.
Yes, and it is a very effective strategy for artists who want to build a Franco-Italian tour. Both packs are available at €39 each. You can also browse the shop to see all our Italy and France packs and combine those that best match your geography and artistic project.
