The exclusive partnership will give AEG Presents full responsibility for managing and producing the Italian tenor’s ticketed live events worldwide beginning January 1, 2026. Developed in collaboration with Bocelli’s management team and WME, the agreement covers performances across five continents.

“This extraordinary partnership marks a fundamental new chapter for Andrea’s global career,” said co-managers Veronica Berti and Francesco Pasquero. “We are extremely pleased to sign with such exceptional partners who have […] shown a deep commitment to the artistic vision. The next ten years will be crucial in consolidating Maestro Bocelli’s role as a global music icon, and we are honored to become part of such a remarkable family.”

AEG Presents Chairman and CEO Jay Marciano traveled to Italy to meet with Bocelli ahead of the deal. “I wanted to understand the man and the artist before embarking on this journey,” he said. “I’m truly thrilled to welcome him into our family and help take his artistry to even greater heights.”

“We are incredibly proud to have worked closely with all parties to make this partnership a reality,” said WME’s Kirk Sommer and David Levy. “M. Andrea Bocelli is not only a unique, extraordinary talent but also a cultural ambassador whose legacy continues to grow.”

The new agreement is described as “the most significant ever for a classical artist, and takes effect next year. It will cover all Bocelli’s ticketed live events across Africa, Asia, Europe, America, and Australia.

The announcement also highlights the deepening relationship with Bocelli’s longtime record label partner, Universal Music Group, uniting his recording and touring activities under one umbrella. No specific tour dates have yet been announced, but fans can expect that to change by next year.
