The Dutch house & techno icon lands in Calabria for a night of pure energy, curated by DiBeat & SUONO Festival
(1888PressRelease) August 06, 2025 - Soverato (CZ) – The Southern Italian coastline is about to experience an extraordinary night of music, rhythm, and cultural connection. On Friday, August 8, the legendary Circle® Club in Soverato will host internationally acclaimed DJ and producer Franky Rizardo, for a headline event that promises to be one of the most important dates on this summer’s European electronic calendar.
This exclusive performance is part of the DiBeat & SUONO Festival, an independent and forward-thinking initiative born to celebrate and elevate the Southern Italian electronic music scene, while building bridges with the global capitals of club culture — from Ibiza to Berlin, from Miami to Amsterdam.
After a season of sold-out events and rising acclaim across Italy, DiBeat & SUONO steps into the international spotlight, and Rizardo’s arrival marks a defining moment: the meeting of underground heritage and future-facing sound, all set against the vibrant backdrop of Calabria’s Ionian coast.
Franky Rizardo: Flow, consistency, and global resonance
With a career spanning more than a decade, Franky Rizardo has become one of the most respected names in contemporary house and techno. Known for his deeply groovy, percussive, and soulful sets, Rizardo has established himself as a catalyst for dancefloor energy and emotional connection. His style blends timeless house rhythms with modern production and a global sensibility — a sound that speaks to both seasoned clubbers and new generations of electronic music lovers.
He is the founder of FLOW, a nomadic party brand and label that has taken over dancefloors around the world — from London to Amsterdam, Barcelona to Tulum — creating a global community that resonates with his musical ethos: freedom, unity, and intensity. FLOW is not just a party; it's a movement.
In addition, Rizardo is a regular guest at Music On, the legendary party series created by Marco Carola, which defines the elite of global techno. Sharing the decks with Carola and other luminaries, Rizardo has proven time and again his ability to read a crowd, shape a narrative, and deliver unforgettable nights, whether at Pacha Ibiza or Club Space Miami.
His upcoming appearance at Circle® in Soverato is much more than a DJ set — it’s a ritual of groove, a communion through sound, and a rare chance to experience an artist of his caliber in one of Southern Italy’s most intimate yet iconic venues.
Circle® Soverato: The soul of Calabria’s nightlife
Situated along the stunning Lungomare Europa, Circle® is not just a venue — it’s a symbol of Calabria’s evolving nightlife culture. Known for its raw energy, stylish design, and unmatched seaside location, Circle® has played host to some of the most influential names in Italy’s club scene.
