The Concerts for Climate Action

​

From 22 to 24 May 2026, Piazza Castello in Turin will be transformed into University Plaza, the beating heart of the European University Festival.

​

Over three unforgettable nights, the square will host concerts broadcast live nationwide and streamed worldwide, each dedicated to funding pioneering research projects in the festival’s five core areas — science, art, music, gastronomy, and sustainability — with a strong emphasis on innovation and climate action.

​

The most promising projects, selected by the Festival’s Scientific Committee, will not only contribute to the creation of the University Manifesto for Climate, but will also receive the entire proceeds from the concerts. These funds will directly co-finance the implementation of the winning project, ensuring a tangible and measurable impact in the global fight against climate change.

​

By merging the power of music, science, and innovation, the Concerts for Climate Action embody the Festival’s mission: to promote a sustainable future and inspire positive global transformation.
