Diana Saliceti returns to Corsican stages in 2026 with confirmed winter dates in Porto‑Vecchio and Biguglia, showcasing a voice that bridges contemporary songwriting and the island’s poetic tradition. Audiences can experience her intimate storytelling and Corsican‑language repertoire in two of the island’s best acoustic settings: La Salle Rouge in Porto‑Vecchio and Espace culturel Charles Rocchi in Biguglia. These early‑year concerts invite travelers and locals to pair a night of music with coastal walks, old‑town dinners, and winter‑light photography from Bastia to Bonifacio.
Confirmed 2026 dates and venues
- Tuesday 27 January 2026, 20:30 — La Salle Rouge, Porto‑Vecchio. The city agenda and tourism office list the date with time and venue confirmation.
- Friday 20 March 2026, 20:30 — Espace culturel Charles Rocchi, Biguglia (near Bastia). The venue’s program page lists “Diana Saliceti” with time and purchase button.
Both halls are known for clear sightlines and warm sound, well matched to voice‑led concerts that favor lyric and timbre over amplified bombast.
The artist and the music
Diana Saliceti is recognized for a contemporary Corsican sound rooted in poetry, melody, and careful phrasing. Her projects move between solo, trio, and collaborative formats, often integrating elements inspired by island polyphony while remaining author‑driven and modern. In 2025 she appeared alongside major Corsican ensembles and festivals; the 2026 dates continue that trajectory with focused winter evenings designed for close listening.
Expect a set that balances:
- Corsican‑language songs carried by voice and a small acoustic core.
- Arrangements that highlight text clarity and the hall’s resonance.
- Moments of hush followed by dynamic swells that feel conversational rather than theatrical.
How to book tickets
- Porto‑Vecchio (La Salle Rouge): The municipal culture portal and the tourism agenda display “Concert : Diana Saliceti — Mardi 27 janvier — 20h30 — Salle Rouge.” Follow the agenda link to the city’s ticketing interface or purchase via the venue’s box office.
- Biguglia (Espace Charles Rocchi): The venue’s program page lists “Diana Saliceti — 20 mars à 20h30” with a direct “Acheter” link for seats. Booking early is recommended for central rows.
Pricing notes: Halls of this size in Corsica typically post accessible public rates, with reduced prices for students and concessions. Final 2026 prices are displayed at checkout on the respective venue pages.
Getting there and where to stay
- Porto‑Vecchio (South Corsica): Fly into Figari–Sud Corse (FSC), a 25–30 minute drive to the old town. La Salle Rouge sits within the cultural complex of Portivechju, allowing a pre‑show dinner in the citadel and a short walk to the hall. Winter roads are quiet; parking near the venue is manageable on weeknights.
- Biguglia (Haute‑Corse): From central Bastia, allow 15–20 minutes along the RT11 to Espace Charles Rocchi. The commuter corridor has regular traffic before 19:30, so plan a slightly earlier departure to collect tickets and settle in. Overnighting in Bastia puts you close to Terra Vecchia cafés and the Vieux Port for post‑show walks.
Make the evening memorable
- Porto‑Vecchio pairing: Arrive early for a stroll through the citadel, then share a plate of fiadone and a glass of Figari or Sartène before the 20:30 start. After the encore, pause on the bastions for a night view across the marina.
- Biguglia pairing: Dine in Bastia’s old town near Place du Marché or Toga Marina, then reach the hall by 19:45. After the performance, a calm loop around Place Saint‑Nicolas captures the harbor lights.
What to expect in the hall
- Doors: Typically 45–60 minutes before the start; aim for 19:45 to avoid queues.
- Seating: Numbered seats; ushers guide quickly to rows.
- Sound: These rooms reward quiet audiences. Phones off, cameras away during a cappella or low‑dynamics passages.
- Merch: Limited runs of CDs or books may be available at the foyer table; bring a card and a small cash backup.
Practical travel tips for winter in Corsica
- Weather: Cool evenings with sea breeze; a light coat is useful for post‑show walks.
- Transport: Taxis are available but pre‑book for late pickups. Drivers in Biguglia often wait at the venue rank after shows.
- Language: Announcements and program notes are in French and Corsican. Even without fluency, the performance arc reads clearly through melody and phrasing.
Extend your trip: from Bastia to the Extreme Sud
- North: Cap Corse day drive from Bastia to Erbalunga and Nonza for coastal photos and cafés.
- South: Bonifacio’s clifftop lanes by day, then Porto‑Vecchio’s old town by evening.
- Islands thread: For music‑minded travelers, scan agendas in Calvi, Corte, and Ajaccio for additional winter concerts by Corsican ensembles.
Staying updated
- Porto‑Vecchio: City culture agenda and the tourism office calendar list live dates, times, and event cards with booking paths.
- Biguglia: The venue’s program page provides the direct purchase link and any late schedule notes.
- Artist channels: Official site and social feeds announce added dates, collaborations, and summer festival stops.
