It turns ten and is the most anticipated (live) musical event of the year. Opens and closes in the summer. The hit song crowns at the Verona Arena, but the ranking – on RTL 102.5, Italy’s leading radio station – will begin immediately after May 31st: during that evening, not to be missed, all the most beloved artists will perform at the Centrale del Foro Italico in Rome. All in an evening with a radio rhythm, all during the Power Hits Estate 2026 (also simultaneously on radio and on channel 36 of the DGT). And this is how summer begins (tickets for the Foro Italico event are available on TicketOne).
“I promise you in Rome an incredible show that will reflect the tastes of Radio Zeta’s youngest listeners (matured in the 5 editions of Future Hits Live) and those of the Power Hits Estate, which decrees the hit and all the hits of summer 2026, which will end on September 1st at the Arena di Verona, already sold out,” says the president of RTL 102.5, Lorenzo Suraci.
An incredible cast, an entirely live evening
The cast of the 2026 edition of RTL 102.5’s “Power Hits Estate” is being formed day after day, which this year celebrates its tenth anniversary with a double appointment.
The Roman line up is truly crazy. The first radio in Italy, for now, has announced the first roundup of big names, who will perform live on May 31st in an unmissable evening: ACHILLE LAURO, ANNALISA, BAMBOLE DI PEZZA, BIAGIO ANTONACCI, BLANCO, BRESH, DITONELLAPIAGA, EDDIE BROCK, ELETTRA LAMBORGHINI, EMMA, FEDEZ, FULMINACCI, GABRY PONTE, J-AX, KID YUGI, LDA & AKA 7EVEN, LEVANTE, MARCO MASINI, NAYT, SAL DA VINCI, SAMURAI JAY, SAYF, SERENA BRANCALE, THE KOLORS, TOMMASO PARADISO… and many other surprises.
The ranking broadcast on RTL 102.5, immediately after the Roman event, will ferry Italian listeners towards the key event at the Verona Arena: the hit of the summer will be proclaimed at the final on September 1st.
