C2C Festival

The C2C Festival, short for Club To Club, is a music festival held every year in Turin between late October and early November, dedicated to electronic, experimental and contemporary music. The event involves several venues across the city, including OGR Torino, Lingotto Fiere, the Teatro Regio and Combo Torino.

The 2026 edition

From 29 October to 1 November 2026 the C2C Festival celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary. For the first time in the event's history, international visitors outnumbered Italian ones, accounting for more than 53% of tickets sold; spectators under 35 made up 78% of the total ^[1].

The line-up for the edition included, among others, Robyn, Oklou, Arca, Yung Lean & Bladee, Kelela, The Avalanches, Kode9 & RP Boo and Lorenzo Senni ^[1].

Venues and anniversary initiatives

For the 25th anniversary, the festival returned after eleven years to the Teatro Carignano with a special matinee on Saturday 31 October. On Sunday 1 November a city-wide event recalled the original format of the festival from more than twenty years earlier: a single ticket granted simultaneous access to two venues, Le Roi, a ballroom designed by architect Carlo Mollino, and Notorius, one of the venues of the first edition of Club To Club in 2002 ^[1].

OGR Torino hosted the Thursday and Sunday events, while the main venue, Lingotto Fiere, hosted those on Friday and Saturday, including the debut of the DAZED Stage. The Teatro Regio hosted, for the fourth year in a row, the daytime hub of C2C Talks on Friday 30 October ^[1].

The festival's headquarters remained Combo Torino, which for the first time hosted, on Sunday 25 October, the preview event for children, C2C KIDS!, with ticket proceeds donated to Médecins Sans Frontières, the event's long-standing charity partner ^[1].
