When is the next season of X Factor coming out?
X Factor is listed as an ongoing series with a "Returning Series" production status, but the next episode or season has not yet been given a firm air date in the official schedule. The most recent episode aired on December 4, 2025, so any future release date is likely to fall after that. Earlier seasons have arrived roughly once a year, so fans typically look to the same part of the calendar for new episodes. When the next release does arrive, it is expected to carry the same content rating of T (IT), which can influence when it airs on different providers and platforms.

overview
What is X Factor about?
X Factor is the Italian version of the British musical talent show The X Factor. The first four seasons aired on Rai 2, but since 2011 it has been broadcast on Sky Uno, with reruns on TV8, after Rai dropped the show due to high costs. Sky Italia acquired the format, extending its broadcast until 2024. Starting from the eleventh season, RTL 102.5 became the official radio station, replacing Radio Deejay and Radio 105. The show was hosted by Francesco Facchinetti (2008-2010), Alessandro Cattelan (2011-2020), Ludovico Tersigni (2021), and Francesca Michielin (2022-2023). From 2024 onwards, Giorgia will take over as host. Since the seventh season, the show has been produced by Fremantle Italia without the collaboration of Magnolia, which had produced the selection episodes in the early seasons. It blends reality and family elements. The series reflects a distinct Italy style and perspective. The story is shaped by its creator, Simon Cowell.
