RTL-102.5-POWER-HITS-ESTATE-2026

RTL 102.5 celebrates the tenth anniversary of Power Hits Estate with something new: for the first time the event doubles and inaugurates the summer season with a special stop at the Centrale del Foro Italico in Rome, scheduled for May 31st.

The evening will officially kick off the race towards the title of summer hit of 2026, a journey that will culminate on 1 September at the Verona Arena with the traditional grand final, already sold out.

Born in 2017, the Power Hits Estate has become over the years one of the most followed events of the Italian music season, bringing the protagonists of the summer charts on stage and transforming the competition for the hit of the year into a great live event.

To celebrate the ten-year milestone, RTL 102.5 has chosen to expand the format with a concert that will see over thirty artists taking turns on stage. The event will be broadcast live on radio and on television on digital terrestrial channel 36.
