The city of Ventimiglia hosted the television production ‘SuperKaraoke’ at the Belvedere del Resentello from September 3 to 5. The event, hosted by Michelle Hunziker and broadcast on Canale 5, was a collaboration between the Liguria Region, the Municipality of Ventimiglia, and Mediaset. Local officials intended for the production to serve as a strategic tool for tourism promotion and to improve the public image of the border city. While local accommodation facilities reported being fully booked, the event faced scrutiny. Confcommercio supported the production for its potential economic benefits, but the municipality relocated local markets to accommodate the festivities, leading to claims of economic losses from vendors. Additionally, the Movimento 5 Stelle criticized the financing, alleging that public spending exceeds 278,000 euros and that the municipality would face further costs for security, cleaning, and infrastructure. The three-night production featured 100 musical talents alongside established artists such as Fabio Rovazzi, Baby K, Ermal Meta, and Anna Tatangelo. The event concluded with over 22,000 total entries recorded, with the final evening seeing a peak attendance exceeding 10,000 people. Local authorities and the Public Security Commissioner reported that security measures, including a system of checkpoints, successfully maintained a maximum simultaneous capacity of 4,000 people per night. Mayor Flavio Di Muro expressed satisfaction with the outcome, stating that the organization demonstrated ‘great professionalism’ and that the security protocols functioned effectively. Following the recording, the new edition of the program premiered on Canale 5 on September 8. ~~During the premiere, Hunziker performed Eros Ramazzotti’s ‘Più bella cosa,’~~ The premiere led access prime time with 4,226,000 viewers and a ~~moment that drew social media attention.~~ 23.2% share, outperforming Rai 1’s ‘Affari Tuoi’.
