What are the best things to do in Lucca during the summer? We can relax in the countryside, have a little tour of the walls, go to the sea or hike the mountains during the day, but\u00a0Lucca\u2019s summer evenings are always full of events<\/strong>. The biggest and most desired is definitely the\u00a0Lucca Summer Festival<\/strong>: a music festival in the middle of the old town that always attracts fans from all over Italy and the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Every year,\u00a0the city of Puccini is transformed into an open-air stage for some of the biggest artists in the contemporary pop and rock music scene<\/strong>: Italian and international bands and musicians take turns on the big stage in Piazza Napoleone and on the one of the historic walls, performing under the stars in a truly unique setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
