NAMELESS FESTIVAL unveils the first headliner of the 2026 edition: the globally renowned DJ, producer and singer-songwriter Calvin Harris will take to the stage, 13 years after his last live in Italy.

A leading figure in current dance music, he has broken world records and reached the top of the main music charts. He has totaled over 56 billion streams in his career, becoming the spearhead of Sony Music's roster and one of the most viewed artists on YouTube.

He has collaborated with world-renowned artists including Frank Ocean, Pharrell Williams, Rihanna, The Weeknd and Travis Scott, to name a few. His work has earned him numerous music awards and nominations, including 14 MTV VMA nominations and 2 wins, 5 Grammy nominations and a 2013 Grammy Award win in the “Best Music Video” category for “We Found Love.”

With this first headliner NAMELESS FESTIVAL, which will take place from 31 May to 1 June in the new “Bione” venue in Lecco, officially inaugurates with this announcement the line up of the summer edition, which will be preceded by Lake Como Music Week, a special widespread event which will be held from 26 May to 1 June.

A week of activities, side events, showcases and talks located throughout the city of Lecco and beyond, all organized in a unique and world-famous context and landscape: that of Lake Como.

Furthermore, next year the appointment with the Festival will be double: Nameless Winter Edition will be held on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 February in Barzio (LC). An idea born from the desire to offer a more intimate, immersive experience focused on the electronic roots of the Festival. The winter edition will include an artistic selection designed for an audience attentive to the most current sounds but with an eye always aimed at the right atmosphere, with the aim of creating connections with the community and an increasingly close relationship with those who have followed the Festival for years and have shaped its DNA. The world-famous DJ Axwell will inaugurate the line up.
