Blue Note Milano blows out 23 candles and celebrates this milestone with a month of live music and special initiatives in the heart of Via Borsieri, home to the only Blue Note in Europe. The club celebrates a story made of great international artists, an ever-growing audience and a calendar that in 2026 continues to post record numbers, with over 24,000 attendees and already more than 70 sold-out shows between January and February.
Among the most significant moments of the celebrations is the Blue Note 2026 award to Steve Gadd, a true master of drums, who has marked the history of jazz, pop rock and fusion through legendary collaborations. The anniversary is also an opportunity to expand the Wall of Fame with the handprint of Lee Ritenour, an iconic guitarist on the international jazz scene, who thus joins the gallery of greats who have performed on the club’s stage.
Tailor-made initiatives make the party even more special, such as the “23 years loud – Blue Note Milano Anniversary 2026” cocktail, created to toast the club’s deep blue vibes, and a programme that confirms Blue Note Milano as a benchmark for live music and quality entertainment, also thanks to communication activities managed by ABG PR.
