Italy's new coalition government will be sworn in on Sunday morning, breaking two months of political stalemate since the general election.
The new cabinet and prime minister will be sworn in at 11:30 (09:30 GMT) at the presidential Quirinal Palace in Rome.
The coalition brings together Enrico Letta's Democratic Party (PD) and the People of Freedom party (PDL) of former PM Silvio Berlusconi.
It was the "only possible government", said President Giorgio Napolitano.
But correspondents say this "grand coalition" between Italy's current main right- and left-wing parties is unprecedented, and will probably prove an uneasy alliance.
