The festival was also broadcasted on Rai, an Italian state broadcasting service, where the clip was watched by more than 10 million viewers.

One moment in particular that tugged at the fans' heartstrings was when Bocelli wrapped his arm around Matteo during their performance.

During 2018, he also appeared in the documentary "Silent Night – A Song for the World," and the TV movie "The Wonderful World of Disney."
