Overview

Puntoeacapo (formally Puntoeacapo Srl) is an Italian concert and festival promoter based in Catania, Sicily. The agency is directed by Nuccio La Ferlita and describes itself as specialising in the organisation of large-scale events in Sicilian stadiums, sports halls, main city squares and heritage venues. Its stated activity covers production, promotion, ticketing and hospitality — "everything needed for an evening to become a memory," as its own site puts it. The company's public profile rests on bringing major Italian and international names to Sicily. Its own account cites concerts by Ligabue, Laura Pausini, Zucchero and Biagio Antonacci at the Stadio San Filippo in Messina, alongside shows in Palasport arenas, in the principal squares of Catania and Palermo, and at exclusive locations such as the Teatro Antico di Taormina, the Teatro Greco di Siracusa, the Teatro della Valle dei Templi in Agrigento and the Scalinata della Cattedrale in Noto. It also states that it is the exclusive agency in Sicily for the island's leading Italian artists. Beyond single concerts, Puntoeacapo is associated with a portfolio of festivals and territorial events. These include Sotto il Vulcano Fest (held in Catania, Zafferana Etnea and Taormina), Dream Pop Fest Palermo, Le Scale della musica in Noto and Stelle al Teatro Greco di Siracusa. The agency has also handled artistic consultancy for editions of the Cous Cous Fest and has organised New Year's Eve shows in major Sicilian cities, working with public-entertainment commissions and law-enforcement bodies. The brand presents itself as a long-standing presence in the Sicilian live sector: its homepage speaks of "11 years of great live shows in Sicily" and dates the birth of the agency to 2015, while its "chi siamo" page traces the founder's career back further, to the Sonica – True Vibes Festival launched in Misterbianco in 1996 and to a Sanremo Critics' Prize won in 2004 as producer of Mario Venuti's "Crudele." Puntoeacapo is a private limited company (Srl) and is not listed on a stock exchange. Its communication channels include its website and an official WhatsApp channel for event updates.

History

Puntoeacapo's own account of its history begins before the agency itself. In 1996 Nuccio La Ferlita founded the Sonica – True Vibes Festival in Misterbianco, a stage for emerging groups and for major Italian and international artists; according to the company's "chi siamo" page, the festival ran for ten editions. In 2004 La Ferlita, working as a producer, won the Critics' Prize at the Sanremo Festival with Mario Venuti's song "Crudele"; in the same year Sonica received the M.E.I. award as Best Italian Independent Festival. The Puntoeacapo agency itself dates its birth to 2015. Its homepage states that it has been bringing major music names to the most beautiful places in Sicily since that year, and describes its activity as production, promotion, ticketing and hospitality. The company presents itself as having accumulated "11 years of great live shows in Sicily" and as running Sotto il Vulcano Fest, whose name evokes the volcanic landscape of the Catania area. Over the following decade the agency built a portfolio spanning stadium concerts, arena shows, city-square events and performances in heritage sites. Its "chi siamo" page cites concerts by Ligabue, Laura Pausini, Zucchero and Biagio Antonacci at the Stadio San Filippo in Messina, and lists work in Palasport venues, in the main squares of Catania and Palermo, and at locations including the Teatro Antico di Taormina, the Teatro Greco di Siracusa, the Teatro della Valle dei Templi in Agrigento and the Scalinata della Cattedrale in Noto. It also states that it is the exclusive agency in Sicily for the island's leading Italian artists. Alongside individual concerts, Puntoeacapo developed a festival and territorial-events business. Its portfolio includes Sotto il Vulcano Fest, held in Catania, Zafferana Etnea and Taormina; Dream Pop Fest Palermo; Le Scale della musica in Noto; and Stelle al Teatro Greco di Siracusa. The agency has also provided artistic consultancy for several editions of the Cous Cous Fest and has organised New Year's Eve shows in all the major Sicilian cities, coordinating with public-entertainment commissions and law-enforcement authorities. By the mid-2020s the brand was promoting a forward-looking programme. Its homepage advertises a 2026 season and a summer calendar running from June to September 2027 at the Villa Bellini in Catania, described as "the summer bill that redefined live shows in Sicily: one stage, one park, a volcano as scenery." Listed dates include Kid Yugi on 3 July 2026 and Blanco on 26 July 2026 at the Villa Bellini, with C.S.I. on 12 September 2026 as a grand finale; other names featured on the site include Emma, Giorgia, Subsonica, Caparezza and Negramaro. The company also promotes an official WhatsApp channel for new dates, ticket openings and programme changes. Puntoeacapo is a private limited company (Srl) directed by its founder, Nuccio La Ferlita. It is not a listed company, and no parent group is identified in the available evidence.
