Antenna Sicilia Live Stream

Antenna Sicilia is a regional television station broadcasting in Sicily from its studios in Catania, at Viale Odorico da Pordenone 50. On air since 16 June 1979, it is the most-watched regional broadcaster in Sicily, with around 800,000 average daily contacts, and is owned by the publishing company Domenico Sanfilippo Editore. The station broadcasts in Italian and Sicilian.

Born from a newspaper

Antenna Sicilia was created as an offshoot of the Catania daily La Sicilia, whose editorial director Mario Ciancio Sanfilippo entrusted the launch broadcast to Pippo Baudo - a personal friend, shareholder and the station's artistic director - while Domenico Tempio led the newsroom. From its first day the station aired Telegiornale La Sicilia in three daily editions (Siciliamattina at 13:50, Siciliasera at 20:15 and Sicilianotte at 22:30), staffed by reporters from the newspaper and contributors such as Candido Cannavò and Franco Zuccalà. In 1980 the station launched the Festival della nuova canzone siciliana, a Sicilian-language song contest hosted by Baudo and later by Pino Caruso and Pippo Pattavina, which ran successfully until 1991.

Programming

Alongside its news operation, Antenna Sicilia built a generalist schedule mixing in-house productions with syndicated series and films. Sicilian viewers of several generations grew up with the station's anime slots, which included titles such as The Sword of King Arthur, The Invincible Robot Trider G7 and Lulu the Angel Among the Flowers, and with its entertainment and music programmes. News, Sicilian culture, sport and talk formats remain the core of the grid today.

Digital era

Antenna Sicilia broadcasts free-to-air on digital terrestrial channel 10 across Sicily and the province of Reggio Calabria through the Raiway Sicilia multiplex, launched its HD version on 30 June 2022, and offers its live broadcast through its official website antennasicilia.it.
