Italian police reportedly shut down a movie wrap party attended by Hollywood stars and rock and roll icon Mick Jagger on the island of Stromboli earlier this week due to a local rule banning music on Wednesdays.
The celebrities had gathered on the volcanic island, which forms part of the Aeolian archipelago, to celebrate after finishing filming for “Three Incestuous Sisters,” an upcoming movie from Italian filmmaker Alice Rohrwacher.
Other famous faces in attendance included Oscar-winning Irish performer Jessie Buckley and Italian cinema legend Isabella Rossellini, as well as “Fifty Shades of Grey” star Dakota Johnson, “Brooklyn” actress Saoirse Ronan, and “Challengers” actor Josh O’Connor, per Italy’s Ansa news agency.
The bash is said to have been stopped by officers in line with the music ban from Riccardo Gullo, the mayor of Lipari, a nearby island.
The decision has drawn criticism from Rosa Oliva, the president of the Pro Loco Amo Stromboli, a local organisation that promotes sustainable tourism.
“This is yet another sign that a territory that, rather than being valued and supported after a winter of severe shortages and neglect, finds itself penalized even in its moments of aggregation and visibility,” Oliva said, per the report.
“Our islands live off tourism,” she continued, adding: “One would have expected a welcome to the guests, or at least a greeting and a thank you for their crucial contribution to the Aeolian economy and their visibility.”
Jagger, the longtime lead singer of British band The Rolling Stones, is set to celebrate his 83rd birthday in July.
The band had tentative plans to tour in 2026 but since appear to have shelved the idea. They last toured in 2024, playing venues across the United States and Canada.
