ITV Studios and HRT close multi format and series deal in Croatia

Public broadcaster HRT in Croatia announced that it has closed a multi format and multi series deal with ITV Studios, which includes a brand new commission for the multi award-winning quiz “Beat the Chasers.” In addition, global hit format “The Voice” is returning to the channel, along with “The Voice Kids” for the first time.

Moreover, “A Year to Remember,” the show that through clips, questions and games takes the audience back to a specific year, has also been commissioned. “I Love My Country,” a format dedicated to celebrating every memorable aspect of Croatia, will also return for an impressive 11th series, a decade after it first aired.

Furthermore, HRT is bringing back “The Voice” for two new seasons, with production soon to get underway on series four, which will air at the end of the year, and series five slated for 2025. “The Voice Kids,” commissioned in over 45 territories globally, is set to launch next year.

“We are excited that HRT is bringing multiple ITV Studios formats to Croatia, showing the breadth of our catalogue in big entertainment formats such as ‘The Voice Kids,’ ‘A Year to Remember’ and ‘Beat the Chasers,’”  commented Arjan Pomper, Managing Director of Global Entertainment at ITV Studios.

Mario Sedmak, Head of Entertainment Dept of Croatian Television at HRT, added: “We are very happy with the continuous cooperation between ITV Studios and HRT. We are thrilled to bring back ‘The Voice’ to HRT for the fourth season and excited for the first season of ‘The Voice Kids.’ As all of ITV Studios shows at HRT are well received by the audiences, we are confident that this will be the same for the brand new commissioned formats ‘A Year to Remember’ and ‘Beat the Chasers.’ We cannot wait to bring these shows to Croatia.”
