TIM Battiti Live
The ultimate Italian summer music show, coming to Trani in 2026
About Battiti Live
Trani: The Capital of Summer Music
In 2026, TIM Battiti Live arrives in Trani, an elegant city overlooking the Adriatic in the province of Barletta-Andria-Trani (BT), Puglia. Following stops in Otranto, Bari, Gallipoli, and Molfetta, the traveling music show produced by Radio Norba for Mediaset has chosen the stunning backdrop of the famous Piazza Quercia—located just steps from the Romanesque Cathedral—to host its massive stage. This marks the 24th edition of one of the most popular events on Italian summer television.
How the Show Works
Battiti Live is more than just a concert; it is a full-scale television production. Performances are recorded in Trani over five nights and then edited into episodes broadcast during prime time on Canale 5 throughout the summer, with replays and streaming available on Mediaset Infinity. The stage features dozens of artists performing their latest hits in a mix of pop, urban, dance, and classic Italian songs.
A Massive Cast
The 2026 edition features over 70 artists, ranging from chart-topping stars and summer sensations to the most beloved voices in Italian pop music. This musical carousel transforms Trani into the beating heart of Italian music for five nights, with the square packed with fans and the festive atmosphere typical of Puglian summer nights.
A New Hosting Trio
The show is once again hosted by Ilary Blasi, joined for 2026 by two new faces: Fabio Rovazzi and Daniele Battaglia. This fresh trio leads a show that has become a collective summer ritual, uniting the massive television audience with the crowds in the square.
An Event for the Region
Supported by the Puglia Region, Battiti Live is much more than a TV program: it is an extraordinary showcase for its host city. Images of Trani, its harbor, the seaside Cathedral, and the historic center reach millions of viewers, making the event a powerful driver for tourism in the city and the entire BT province.
Battiti Live — edition 2026
For 2026, TIM Battiti Live chose Trani as its capital, setting up the main stage in Piazza Quercia, overlooking the Adriatic. Five nights of recording, from June 24 to 28, with a packed square and a cast of over 70 Italian music artists. A new feature this season was the hosting trio of Ilary Blasi, Fabio Rovazzi, and Daniele Battaglia. The show, produced by Radio Norba for Mediaset and supported by the Puglia Region, was then broadcast as five prime-time episodes on Canale 5.
