Agon Channel was a private television station from Tirana, Albania, launched on 5 April 2013 by Italian businessman Francesco Becchetti. The Italian version of Agon Channel was launched on 1 December 2014 on the Italian digital terrestrial television network with channel slot 33, as a sister channel of the Albanian Agon Channel. Agon was available in two languages; Albanian and Italian. Italian celebrities such as Simona Ventura, Pupo, Maddalena Corvaglia and Sabrina Ferilli were associated with the station along with Albanian personalities such as Sonila Meço from Vizion Plus, Adi Krasta and Saimir Kodra from Top Channel, Gentian Zenelaj, Mimoza Picari and Menada Zaimi.

Agon Channel shut down on 10 October 2015.[1] Francesco Becchetti, the owner of the channel and his mother, Liliana Condomitti were accused and wanted for money laundering. Francesco Becchetti's assets were frozen, and Agon Channel was unable to continue which led to the channel's shutdown.
