C2C Turns 25 and Spreads Across Eight Venues in Turin
From the OGR to a theatre matinée and a citywide Sunday, Club To Club marks a quarter of a century by refusing to behave like a single-site festival.

Inside C2C
Four days, eight venues
C2C 2026 runs from Thursday 29 October to Sunday 1 November, during Turin's Contemporary Art Week. OGR Torino opens and closes the festival, Lingotto Fiere carries Friday and Saturday, Teatro Carignano hosts a Saturday matinée, and Sunday returns to the city with Le Roi and Notorius on one ticket.
A seven-hour set as a statement
Theo Parrish plays seven hours on 30 October at the new DAZED Stage. Long sets are the clearest signal a festival can send about what it values: not a parade of 90-minute slots, but one artist given enough time for the night to actually go somewhere. It is programming as an argument about how dance music should be heard.
The daytime half
C2C Talks returns to Teatro Regio for a fourth consecutive year, and Combo Torino hosts the festival headquarters plus C2C KIDS!, a preview aimed at a younger audience. A festival that books Arca and Robyn at night and runs a public conversation programme by day is making a case for electronic music as culture rather than nightlife product.
Twenty-five years, still selling out
The festival says the Turin edition is on course to sell out for a fifth consecutive year, with the Thursday ticket, the Saturday matinée and the VIP Passport already gone. Its London debut at the Barbican in October also sold out. Longevity in this field is rare, and usually comes from curation that audiences learn to trust.
