MESSINA is preparing to welcome one of the most loved bands on the Italian music scene: Pinguini Tattici Nucleari. The group, now synonymous with record successes and sold-out tours, will stop at PalaRescifina on May 28th and 29th for two concerts that promise to be unforgettable. Part of the “Let’s not lose sight of it/Fake News Indoor Tour – Palasport 2024” tour, the two Messina dates sold out in a very short time, confirming the band’s popularity.
A record success
2023 was a banner year for the Nuclear Tactical Penguins, with over one million tickets sold and more than one and a half billion streams. The band, composed of Riccardo Zanotti, Elio Biffi, Nicola Buttafuoco, Simone Pagani, Matteo Locati and Lorenzo Pasini, was able to conquer the audience with a mix of fun songs and deeper lyrics. The latest album “Fake News”, awarded four platinum discs, consolidated their position at the top of the charts. The current tour is gathering unanimous acclaim, and the group is already preparing for an equally ambitious 2025 with the “Hello World – Tour Stadi 2025”.
