Alternativa (English: Alternative, abbr. A or Alt) is a populist and Eurosceptic political party in Italy. It was established in February 2021 as a parliamentary sub-group of the Mixed Group named L'Alternativa c'è (English: There is an Alternative).[3] Its members are former deputies of the Five Star Movement who were expelled from the party for having voted against Mario Draghi's government.[4]

On 15 November 2021, Alternative became a full-fledged party and adopted its current name.[5][6] The party's three senators sat in the Constitution, Environment, Labour group.
