Celebrating Freedom with Andrea and Veronica Bocelli
A Weekend in Tuscany: July 25-27, 2026
An Evening of Artistry and Impact
Jolene Smith and Dr. Ronald J. Clark cordially invite you to a weekend with Maestro Andrea Bocelli and Veronica Berti Bocelli, where world-class artistry meets world-changing impact, in support of the Andrea Bocelli Foundation and the Eradicate Slavery Alliance.
You will be among a select group of cherished friends and colleagues, united in our inspiration by the virtuosity of Maestro Andrea and the resilience of the human spirit—as demonstrated by the countless lives transformed through these organizations.
Welcome to an unforgettable evening.
This rare opportunity combines an exclusive behind-the-scenes experience with an extraordinary night of soul-stirring music—all while supporting vital work that changes lives.
Saturday, July 25 — Dinner and Concert at the Teatro del Silenzio
The weekend opens in Lajatico, the small hilltop village where Andrea was born and raised. Once a year, the surrounding hills give way to the Teatro del Silenzio — a natural amphitheater that lies silent all year except for this single night, when Andrea returns home to perform on the stage carved into the valley below.
As the sun sets over the Tuscan countryside, guests will gather for a private dinner on the terrace overlooking the theater, savoring fine wine and exquisite cuisine. From there, we descend into the amphitheater itself for an unforgettable evening of music beneath the stars — one of the most celebrated concerts in the world, performed by Andrea in the valley where his story began.
Sunday, July 25 — Beach Party at Forte dei Marmi
The weekend moves to the coast, to Forte dei Marmi — the elegant seaside town on the Tuscan Riviera that has long been a summer gathering place for artists, writers, and the Bocelli family themselves. At Andrea and Veronica’s beach club, the evening begins with a sunset aperitif on the sand and unfolds into a beach dinner woven through with music and relaxed conversation — an intimate, festive gathering in the company of the Bocelli family and friends.
Reconnect with your body and mind as you escape the noise of everyday life.
