The Andrea Bocelli moment

From September 12–14, Constitution Square will host one of the biggest musical events of the year: Andrea Bocelli’s concert, opening the Unforgettable Festival 2025. The performance will be followed by two more festival days featuring international and local artists.

Sharing the stage with the legendary Andrea Bocelli will be three extraordinary artists: Spanish tenor José Carreras, whose voice has graced the world’s most prestigious opera houses; pan flute virtuoso Gheorghe Zamfir, presenting a special show titled Celebrating Zamfir; and Welsh mezzo-soprano Katherine Jenkins, known for her unique interpretations blending classical music with contemporary influences. This constellation of talent promises to turn Bucharest evenings into an unforgettable musical experience.
