    Here is Med­imex 2025!

    Med­imex 2025 – the inter­na­tion­al fest­iv­al and music con­fer­ence pro­moted by Puglia Cul­ture as part of the Puglia Sounds pro­gram – returns to Taranto from June 17 to 21 with a stel­lar lineup of inter­na­tion­al artists: Massive Attack, Prim­al Scream and St. Vin­cent.The 2025 edi­tion of Med­imex revolves around the theme Strada “On the Move”, explor­ing the idea of travel, trans­form­a­tion, migra­tion, and music as a vehicle for change. Once again, the fest­iv­al offers a rich and diverse pro­gram: major con­certs, show­cases, net­work­ing oppor­tun­it­ies, train­ing ses­sions, talks, exhib­i­tions, and artist present­a­tions, all designed to engage music pro­fes­sion­als, emer­ging tal­ents, cre­at­ives, and music lov­ers alike. This year’s edi­tion will be cur­ated by Ant­o­nio Diod­ato and Michele Riondino, two renowned artists from Taranto, who will work pro bono along­side Artist­ic Coordin­at­or Cesare Veronico to devel­op new pro­jects and ini­ti­at­ives, to be announced in the com­ing weeks.
