Ypsi & Love

Ypsigrock is the best festival on the planet.

Mogwai

If you missed out on Glasto, then you should try it.

The Times

Ypsigrock excelled once again, it must now be seen as one of the most tasteful and considered ‘boutique’ festivals in Europe, if not the world.

Gigwise

The best festival you’ll only find if you leave the beaten track of the European circuit behind.

The 405

There’s a mysterious charm to this Sicilian event that is nigh on impossible to put into words.

CLASH

Un appuntamento che ha saputo diventare meta turistica, momento di aggregazione e di cultura, e soprattutto uno stato mentale.

Stefano Cuzzocrea (Journalist and unforgettable Friend)

Ypsigrock’s beautiful location, married to excellent production and hospitality resulted in the festival being one of the most memorable weekends of my life.

Andy Inglis (5000 Mgmt, UK)

You would be hard-pressed to find a festival more beautiful.

The Independent

Is this Europe’s most picturesque festival? Almost certainly, yes.

Ypsi Once – Preview

Ypsi Once

At Ypsigrock, every artist performs only once with the same project.

Ypsi Once is one of the rules that defines the festival’s curatorial identity. Every band or artist becomes part of Ypsigrock’s history with a single appearance under the same name. A return is only possible through a new project, a side project or a special collaboration.

How it works

One appearance only Each musical project performs at Ypsigrock only once.
No repetition The same name does not return in future editions.
Possible exceptions An artist may return only with a different project.
