Giovanni Zarrella - EINE ITALIENISCHE SOMMERNACHT

In the organizer's words:

Over the past three years, he has catapulted himself to the top of the German-speaking entertainment industry at breathtaking speed: GIOVANNI ZARRELLA, singer, presenter & entertainer. With his unmistakable voice, his irresistible Italian charm, his modern interpretations of Italian classics and great German hits, he has become an absolute superstar in recent years. His passion for music has always been at the heart of GIOVANNI ZARRELLA's work, and his solo tour in fall 2022 and the Summer Open Airs 2023 thrilled thousands of spectators. From summer 2024, the charismatic entertainer will go on a major summer tour with his great band - known from his own great ZDF Saturday night show - and present the greatest German hits in Italian, pop classics from his homeland and, for the first time, new/own compositions live. His shows guarantee pure Italian joie de vivre and great entertainment with a lot of heart and passion.

Since Giovanni Zarrella released his acclaimed solo debut "La vita è bella" in summer 2019, he has been one of the biggest stars in the current pop/schlager landscape: straight to #2 in the album charts in Germany and then non-stop in the top 100 for 15 months, with plenty of precious metal in the meantime. With his 2nd album "CIAO!", the likeable singer went one better and immediately conquered the #1 spot in the German album charts. But that's not all: his own ZDF music show, which premiered successfully in September 2021, was the next accolade to follow. With over 3.8 million viewers, the first "Giovanni Zarrella Show" won the race for Saturday evening shows. Each time, Giovanni gave an impressive presentation of his very own diversity, his entertainer qualities, paired with dancing skills and his musicality - together with many national and international star guests. In 2022, his third album "PER SEMPRE" reached number 1 in the German album charts and in the same year he received the German Television Award in the category "Best Individual Performance/Moderation Entertainment for The Giovanni Zarrella Show" for his performance as host of his own Saturday evening show.

In the summer of 2023, Giovanni played his first open-air headlining tour - he filled numerous venues with "An Italian Summer Night" and left happy faces everywhere he went! In addition, he also won the hearts of viewers in the fall of 2023 with his participation as a coach in the 13th season of the popular casting show "The Voice of Germany". With his charismatic manner, heart, mind and talent as an entertainer, he won over audiences and candidates alike. His spontaneous duets with the talents and jurors were highlights in the shows, and with his emphatic and likeable manner he quickly won the hearts of all participants and viewers and is now facing the big live shows with his talents, in which the ultimate goal is to win the big TVoG final.

In the coming summer of 2024, Giovanni Zarrella will finally bring that sunny dolce vita feeling to Germany's open-air stages again with his Italian temperament when he builds a successful musical bridge between the greatest classics of recent German music culture and the language of his childhood home and presents them in a completely new and unique way - and you can certainly look forward to his own new songs!!!
