About us
In the heart of Salento, Cave del Duca was created from an ancient Lecce stone quarry.
A place that holds the memory of a deep past, now transformed into a living space, ready to welcome sounds, visions and people from all over the world.
Reborn in 2024, the quarry has become a meeting point for those seeking intense, free, true experiences.
Here, music is not just heard: it is lived, shared, imprinted on the walls and skin.
Every sound here becomes atmosphere. Every event, a collective journey carved in stone.
From the first light of dusk to the last vibration, every event at the Quarries is an experience that engages all the senses.
Artists from all over the world meet an audience ready to let themselves go, in a place that lives, breathes, resonates.
The quarry becomes a setting, a shelter, a stage.
No two evenings are the same, because each time it is the audience that rewrites history
Connection with Culture, Economy and Local Tourism
Not just a place, but an engine that feeds connections
In the heart of Salento, the project enhances not only the natural and historical beauty of the quarries, but also the cultural, economic and tourist fabric that surrounds them.
Each event hosted in the Cave del Duca is a homage to Salento tradition and identity. We collaborate with artists, craftsmen, storytellers from the region to build experiences that tell true stories: those carved in stone, in sounds, in flavours.
From popular music to contemporary visual arts, from site-specific installations to experiential paths, each initiative is designed to strengthen the link between the public and the local cultural heritage.
We believe in a sustainable and shared growth model. The induced activities generated by the events involve local businesses, food producers, technical suppliers and young professionals in the area. Working together means creating widespread value and concrete opportunities: every ticket sold, every experience lived is an investment in the vitality of Salento.
Cave del Duca is a privileged gateway to a different Salento: more intimate, deeper, truer. Visitors are not mere spectators, but protagonists of a journey that combines discovery, emotion and respect. We integrate artistic experiences with cultural itineraries, food and wine proposals and collaborations with local accommodation facilities, promoting slow, experiential and quality tourism.
