Among the highlights is billy woods, who returns to the festival with an exclusive Italian show following the release of Golliwog, a bold, unflinching work that blends surrealism, dark humour, and razor-sharp social commentary. He’ll share the stage on Sunday 2 November at OGR Torino with Smerz, the art-pop duo from Norway making a long-awaited return after eight years, and Irish artist Maria Somerville, who will debut in Italy with her atmospheric, dreamlike soundscapes from her critically acclaimed album Luster. Other newly announced acts include Floating Points, Blawan, Barker, Mechatok, Kelman Duran, Annahstasia, and Los Thuthanaka.

These names join an already stacked lineup that includes the return of Blood Orange, Four Tet, A. G. Cook, and Nicolas Jaar (in a unique collaboration with Ali Sethi). Rising stars Saya Gray and Nourished By Time, genre-bending acts like Ecco2k, and sonic visionaries such as John Maus, Djrum, and Skee Mask round out the list of artists who’ll take over Turin’s Lingotto Fiere and OGR Torino this autumn.

Now in its 23rd edition, C2C Festival (formerly Club To Club) will take place from 30 October to 2 November 2025, coinciding with Turin’s Contemporary Art Week. This year’s theme, Per Aspera Ad Astra, is dedicated to the late Sergio Ricciardone and promises a vibrant celebration of avant-pop in all its forms.
