Release Window: September/October
La travessa has maintained a steady Annual rhythm for 2 years, typically returning in September. Since its debut on the 3Cat platform, the series has become a flagship reality competition for Catalan media. The production focuses on physical challenges across diverse landscapes, bridging the gap between traditional TV and streaming. Its first season established a late-autumn foothold, while the second season arrived in late September to capture momentum.
The historical trajectory suggests the program favors the transition between the third and fourth quarters. By anchoring its release to the autumn season, the show maximizes engagement during the peak return-to-routine period. This strategic placement allows for a multi-platform rollout that leverages on-demand availability. As the series expands its scope, its predictable release window remains a key component of the network's annual programming strategy.
