Format

Italia’s Got Talent (IGT) returns with all the fun, lightness and joy that has always distinguished it and is ready to amaze viewers with all the talents who will alternate on the stage, week after week.

After her absence at the final of the previous season, at the helm of IGT 11 we will find Lodovica Comello. Confirmed the judges line-up composed of the much-feared entrepreneur Joe Bastianich, Olympic champion Federica Pellegrini, former record producer Mara Maionchi and comedian Frank Matano, veteran of the group, in his sixth year as a judge. The judging panel has as always the task of evaluating the 100 seconds-long performances of the local talents that will alternate on the stage of Italia’s Got Talent. Each judge can press their buzzer during a performance if they believe it to be unconvincing, boring, or completely unacceptable. Four buzzers automatically ends the performance. Choosing who send to the final will not be easy as it will not even be easy to choose who to give the coveted Golden Buzzer.

Based on international hit format Got Talent, created by Simon Cowell and co-owned by SYCO Entertainment and Fremantle, IGT has been aired by Mediaset's Canale 5 until Season 6 (2015) when its landed-on Sky Italy (TV8, Sky Uno).

Produced by Fremantle Italy, Italia’s Got Talent Season 11 will air starting from January 27 every Wednesday at 9.30 p.m. on TV8.
