Dear friends,
We’re happy to share with you some special moments from Il Volo’s excellent concert yesterday, December 16, at the Teatro di Natale.
They managed to create a special, magical atmosphere in a literally sold-out venue and show their love to their Greek fans! 🥰 We hope to see you all again soon!
We wish you Happy Holidays! 🎄🌟🎄✨
This video of thanks to Athens published by Il Volo is also very beautiful.
IGNAZIO= All three of us are a fundamental part, so if one isn’t here, there’s no one!
GIANLUCA= The promise we’ve always made to each other is to know how to listen to each other, which is actually the most important thing. After all these years, it’s almost rare for groups to have such a long lifespan in music, but perhaps the secret is putting egos aside and knowing how to listen to others, understanding that unity truly is strength.

Il Volo triumphs in Zurich: a memorable concert at the Hallenstadion and the announcement of their new 2026-2027 world tour.
The Hallenstadion provided the backdrop for an intense evening where the audience attentively followed a musical journey through opera, pop, and Italian and international songs, presented with elegance and stylistic coherence.
One of the evening’s highlights was the announcement of their new world tour, announced directly from the stage. Il Volo will return to Zurich on October 24, 2027, at 8:00 PM, again at the Hallenstadion, for a new date included in their 2027 tour. Tickets are not yet available, but Tuttoitalia, as official media partner, will provide timely updates on the opening of pre-sales.
The official photos of the performance, taken by our photographer Luca Greco, are available here in a dedicated gallery that documents the evening’s atmosphere in detail:
From their television origins to the international scene
The story of Il Volo began in 2009 during the program “Ti lascio una canzone,” where the three young artists stood out for their vocal quality and were subsequently professionally supported by manager Michele Torpedine. Their debut album, “Il Volo,” was well received in the United States and entered the Billboard Top Ten, launching a career studded with global tours, prestigious collaborations with artists such as Barbra Streisand and Placido Domingo, a triumph at the Sanremo Music Festival, and international recognition such as the Marcel Besançon Award at the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest.
An ever-evolving musical identity
Over the years, the trio has developed an artistic vision that blends Italian opera tradition with elements of contemporary pop. From projects dedicated to the Three Tenors to tributes to Ennio Morricone, to more recent productions such as Ad Astra International Edition and the single “Tra le onde,” Il Volo continues to evolve without straying from its distinctive style.
The new world tour and the return to Zurich
Yesterday’s concert offered a preview of the atmosphere and artistic direction of the announced tour. The date of October 24, 2027 in Zurich will be the next official date with the Swiss public and is part of a particularly extensive tour spanning Europe, the United States, and Latin America.
At the Zurich concert there was also a very special fan, little Gabriele with his mother Michelle, who came to see his father Ignazio for the first time.❤️💙
In this video during rehearsals, Gabriele is in Ignazio’s arms and with his uncles Piero who compliments him and Gianluca who records everything on video!! 😍😍😍
How sweet, but you will feel even more tender seeing these beautiful photos of Gabriele, mom and dad. 💙❤️❤️
Congratulations to Ignazio and Michelle for this beautiful “masterpiece,” and congratulations to Il Volo for this wonderful tour that’s stopping in many European cities.
December 14 Lisbon
The concert was held at the Meo Arena.
But the next concert is in Portugal, so from Spain to Switzerland and then back through Portugal, then Greece and back to Spain. How do they do it???? In fact, they themselves posted a photo showing them flying on a small private plane.
In the meantime, 15 outdoor concerts have been announced in Italy this summer and my Brescia has also been confirmed and of course I already have the ticket, second row!!
More European concert dates have been announced for 2027……wow guys, what a tour de force you’re in for!!
Another piece of news is that on December 13th here in Italy on Canale 5 the first concert of Mantua 2025 was re-broadcast and for the next two Saturdays we will see the second and third TUTTI PER UNO concerts held in Mantua this year, so a good television binge of Il Volo!!
But the beauty is that wherever you go, you’re eagerly awaited and cheered, and this fills all of us who’ve always followed you with pride, as well as the new fans just getting to know you.
Full steam ahead!!
See you soon for the final three concerts and best wishes for Christmas!
Three more wonderful concerts, three great dates with their fans from all over Europe. Congratulations again, guys!
But that’s not all! The first dates of the U.S. Tour have been announced. They’ll be in your country in April 2026. Lots of great dates where you can see them live right here in the U.S. Are you already thinking about which concert to go to?
But the European Tour isn’t over yet. Next stop: Belgium!!
After a few days’ break, the European tour resumes, with the first stop being Romania.
November 23, ORADEA
The concert was held in the Oradea Arena.
I found this video that shows the entire concert, there are also some funny moments and a very sweet moment with Luca, a child in the audience, who sings a short piece of Capolavoro with them!
On November 24, BG Sound Stage (concert organizer) released this statement:
“Great news! The concert filmed in Bulgaria will be broadcast on Canale 5 on Christmas Eve!” #Repost @bg_sound_stage
🤩 Dear friends, ⭐️ We are extremely happy to share this wonderful news with all of you!

November 28 SOFIA
The concert was at Arena 8888.
As I’ve already explained, the concert will be recorded and broadcast on Canale 5 on Christmas Day, so in addition to the scheduled songs, Christmas carols will also be performed, and the arena will be decorated for the holidays.
I don’t want to spoil the Christmas surprise too much, especially since I’ll be showing you the entire Christmas concert later, so I’ll just show you the beginning. 😉
INCANTO DI NATALE!!
GLORIA IN EXCELSIS DEO
How wonderful, what a wonderful Christmas atmosphere with the stained-glass windows illuminating a heavy snowfall, and what a wonderful opening song, superbly performed by our treasures, showing off their beautiful voices.
I won’t suggest anything else related to Christmas, even though I’m eager to see more videos. But be patient, Christmas is just around the corner!
How lucky the Bulgarian audience was to have witnessed this magnificent concert! I’m truly happy for them.
But there’s some news.
Il Volo announces that they’ll be back in Mantua in September for three evenings of TUTTI PER UNO, which will be broadcast on Canale 5.
Ticket advance sales are already open.
First of all, I want to apologize for the delay in updating you.
My daughter is moving, and I’m busy helping her, and Il Volo has concerts so hectic it’s hard to keep up with them.
Lots of great news and so many successes. I think Il Volo is doing a truly fantastic European tour, and the love they’re receiving everywhere is priceless.
And what can I say about Incanto di Natale, a concert that looks fantastic and that we’ll be savoring in its entirety during these holidays?
I have another piece of good news (especially for me): the Brescia newspaper has published the names of the singers performing in Brescia, my hometown….and Il Volo is among them!!!! I’m so happy about this, but for now, it’s news that needs to be confirmed by Il Volo.
The European tour continues at a rapid pace and continues to generate success.
The series of concerts in Germany has also concluded, and Il Volo is heading to the Czech Republic.

I PUFFI 🤣😂🤣 In this short chat video from Il Volo, Ignazio jokes about the color of the clothes worn by the boys, saying that the three of them look like Smurfs (in Italian PUFFI) who are, in fact, blue. 😂💙💙💙😂
LIBIAM DE LIETI CALICI together with a guest soprano Elina Nechayeva
“✨ IL VOLO will return to Prague in 2027! The trio of Piero Barone, Ignazio Boschetto, and Gianluca Ginoble will once again grace the O2 Arena on October 18, 2027. It will be their fourth concert in Prague and once again a great treat for all pop opera lovers.
Today’s performance was full of emotion, elegance, and unforgettable musical moments. IL VOLO shone with the Bohemian Symphony Orchestra Prague under the guidance of Martin Šanda, and special guests: Swiss cello virtuoso Jodok Vuille and Estonian soprano Elina Nechayeva.
In 2027, fans will once again be able to experience the charm of Italy, the power of the three voices, and the exceptional musical atmosphere that combines classical tradition with a modern twist.”
Gianluca hugs a fan and Piero’s sweet memory of Barbara. ❤️🙏
Il Volo thanks Prague and Budapest with this fun video!!
MVM DOME posted these beautiful photos announcing a future concert in 2027 with these words:
“The bar was already high last year, but yesterday they easily cleared it. 🙌🏻 What will be here in 2027? 🤭”
Once again, two amazing concerts, once again the magic of their voices was confirmed, and the large audience responded with so much love!!
Now there are no concerts until November 23rd, so our guys can get some rest…do you think that’s possible????
Indeed!!!
The ATP Tennis FINALS were held in Turin in November, and the match between the two finalist champions, SINNER(Italian) and ALCARAZ(Spanish), took place on Sunday, November 16th. To everyone’s surprise, because the news hadn’t been widely spread, the live TV broadcast of the event began with the entrance of IL Volo, who sang the Italian National Anthem: FRATELLI D’ITALIA
Il Volo’s anthem before the match between Sinner and Alcaraz: “What a thrill! Like us, they started at 14.”
It certainly wasn’t the first time the Il Volo boys had sung the Mameli Anthem, but this time, in the center of Turin’s Inalpi Arena, shortly before the thrilling match between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz in the final of the 2025 ATP Finals, the artists were also filled with emotion. “We weren’t used to it, and we weren’t in front of our usual crowd, but it was even more beautiful. We felt all the emotion and immense affection.”
We spoke with Gianluca Ginoble and Piero Barone, who explained how they were asked to sing at the last minute: “We’re currently busy with our European tour,” Piero explains. “Yesterday we were in Budapest and we received the offer to sing at the ATP Finals; we wouldn’t have missed it for anything in the world. We’ve never responded so quickly to a request.”
All three singers are passionate about tennis, and it seems they play regularly. They’re pretty good, in short. Gianluca, a little less so: “Ignazio and Piero often play together. You could say that Piero is a bit like our Sinner, while Ignazio is instinctive; he even shouts a bit, like Alcaraz. For now, I’m the umpire.” They say that, finding themselves on this unconventional stage, they’ve noticed the differences but, above all, the similarities in the situations; sport and music aren’t that far apart after all.
“It’s clear that these two young champions were born to do what they do,” Piero reflects. “They discovered that they were practically children and are able to live off their passion, dedicating themselves to it, putting everything they have into it. They are an inspiration. That’s what we try to do too: we started at 14, discovering our calling, and we see a lot of ourselves in them. It’s a tough journey, but a beautiful one.” Gianluca quotes Morricone in “Silence is Music,” when he describes the sacredness of the exchange and the respect of thousands of people who almost held their breath so as not to disturb. “It seems like a meditative practice. Which is then interrupted by explosions of joy: a fantastic experience that is very similar to a standing ovation.”
And here in the backstage are Sinner and Il Volo waiting to greet the champion.
And once again, our beloved guys amazed and thrilled us with two more fantastic concerts, but above all, with a truly Italian sense of pride for the closing of the 2025 ATP Finals tennis tournament.🎾
A few days off (perhaps) and then the European Tour continues from Oradea, Romania.
See you soon: Daniela🤗
