Luca Carboni Makes Post‑Cancer Return in Milan With Jovanotti, Elisa and Cremonini

He signals a shift to one‑off shows, with early‑2026 dates set for Rome and Bologna.

Overview

  • On November 11 at the Unipol Forum in Assago, the singer delivered an emotional concert titled Rio Ari O.
  • The performance ran nearly three hours before a sold‑out arena, revisiting songs from across his catalog.
  • He opened with Primavera, framing it as a metaphor for renewal after a 2022 lung cancer diagnosis and recovery.
  • Carboni said respiratory training helped him manage fears about breath control during the comeback.
  • He ruled out a conventional tour, announced Rome and Bologna concerts for early 2026, and noted an unfinished album started before his illness.
