Set along Corso Umberto, with views stretching across the Bay of Naxos towards Mount Etna, Hotel Metropole has been part of Taormina’s story for over 150 years. A landmark where the town’s storied past meets its vibrant present.
Across generations, artists, travellers and remarkable personalities have passed through its rooms and paused on its terrace. Today, this spirit lives on through a curated calendar of live music, intimate conversations and dining experiences, alongside private events and celebrations created around each guest.
Come for the music, stay for the conversation, and let the evening unfold at its own pace.
Metropole in Music
Summer Evenings, Beautifully Composed
Piano and vocals, jazz, DJ sets and live performances bring the Bellevue terrace to life, turning it into an intimate stage overlooking the Ionian Sea.
Metropole in Music is an invitation to experience Taormina after sunset: begin with an aperitivo, follow the rhythm of the evening and linger over dinner at Bellevue Restaurant.
Each performance has its own distinctive voice. The setting remains unmistakable: Taormina, Mount Etna and the sea.

Giovedì al Metropole
Music, Stories and Conversation
Six evenings. Six distinctive voices. One remarkable setting.
On selected evenings, artists, musicians and leading figures from the contemporary cultural scene gather at Hotel Metropole to share their stories in a setting that feels both intimate and effortless.
Giovedì al Metropole is a curated series shaped by music, words and genuine conversation. Best enjoyed with a glass of wine in hand, each evening offers the rare pleasure of experiencing an artist up close. For those wishing to linger, the experience continues over dinner at Bellevue Restaurant.
Some stories end with the final note. Others stay with us long after.
