Domenica in is an Italian Sunday long-running television show broadcast by Rai 1 since 1976. During its history, the title was also spelled as Domenica in... and Dom&Nica in.^[1]

The show was originally planned to offer to the Italian audience, affected in those years by a profound austerity, an alternative to the typical Sunday afternoon trips and outings.^[1] It has been the first Italian program to go well beyond the standard duration of 2 hours and to have a very long running, about six hours from 14,00 p.m. to 20,00 p.m.^[1][2] A program which is different in its structure from one edition to another, it consists of different segments reserved to entertainment, interviews, sport, games, journalism.^[1]
