After two years of restrictions due to the Covid 19 pandemic, the “World Wild Tour” started on 18 April in Glasgow (UK), followed by two sold-out concerts at the Royal Albert Hall in London. The 14 concerts in Italy, held at the Arena in Verona, attracted more than 150,000 people from Italy and other countries.
With more than two hours of music and a constantly changing set, Zucchero makes every show a unique and unforgettable experience. He revives some of his greatest hits, but also plays songs from his newer albums such as “Discover” and “D.O.C”. He is accompanied on stage by an exceptionally talented supergroup. With an ever-evolving set full of highlights, Zucchero takes his audience on a journey through his entire career, encompassing both his newer songs and the energy and momentum of the hits that helped write the history of Italian music. A wonderful stage set provides the perfect backdrop for this fantastic show: a gigantic sun heralding rebirth, with a selection of images inside representing Zucchero’s entire musical journey.
