Fiorella Mannoia was forced for health reasons to postpone the Una Nella Centomila - in Arena concert event until 2024, the live event scheduled for 26 September in Verona and which has the objective of preventing and combating gender violence.

«I am mortified to inform you that I am stuck in bed due to a herniated disc that I have just been diagnosed with – explained the 69-year-old Roman singer – and which hit me a few days ago, as you probably saw during the Tim Music Awards. Certainly for several days, it will be impossible for me to move, rehearse and perform on stage."

«My fellow friends and all the organizers – he continued –, with a huge gesture of affection and solidarity, have decided to postpone this evening to make it a celebration for everyone. I hope to give you good news soon. Thank you all, I am moved by the solidarity you are showing me."

«We have been working on this event for months, with an extraordinary response from the public, which made it sold out in just 20 days, and Fiorella's presence, in front and behind the scenes, is in all respects essential – he added Ferdinando Salzano, founder of Friends & Partners –. We cannot think of creating the show without her, who in addition to having coordinated the artistic and musical direction of the entire show, would have been the protagonist of beautiful musical collaborations with her friends and colleagues, who accepted the invitation to be on stage of the Verona Arena for this very important cause. For this reason, the choice of all of us, organisers, artists, Rai, Carlo Conti, Fondazione Una niente Centomila, is to postpone the event to next year, in order to have Fiorella with us and build an even more special evening, all the height of the fundamental social purpose it has ."
