The line-up for Sanremo 2024 sees a lot of returning artists, and some former winners too, most notably Emma (2014), Diodato (2020), Il Volo (2015) and Mahmood (2019 & 2022). We also see Eurovision 1978 representatives Ricchi e Poveri participating, who are best known for their big 1981 hit “Sarà perché ti amo”.
The line-up also sees former Sanremo partipants, including Annalisa, Irama, Fiorella Mannoia, Loredana Bertè, Mr Rain, Renga & NEK and The Kolors.
The Festival di Sanremo 2024 will take place across five nights, from Tuesday 6th February to Saturday 10th February 2024 in its home at Teatro Ariston.
Night one sees all 30 acts performing their Sanremo entries, with a press, television and radio jury all voting. As we head into night two, the top 15 acts from night one will get the chance to perform again, but this time, only the radio jury will be returning, alongside televoting, with a 50/50 split. The remaining 15 acts will have their chance to perform again on night three, with the same voting system in place as night two.
Night four is covers night! All of the 30 acts will get the chance to perform a song of their choice, alongside a guest act of their choice. Night four will see 34% televoting, 33% press, television and web jury and 33% radio jury.
The fifth night sees all 30 acts performing their Sanremo entries for one last time, with 100% televoting. After this, the sum of the results from nights one to four will be added up. The top 5 acts will have the chance to perform their songs again. The final results of Sanremo 2024 will be decided by 34% televoting, 33% press, television and web jury and 33% radio jury.
The winning act of Sanremo 2024 will have first refusal for representing Italy at Eurovision 2024. Should the winning act deline to go to Eurovision 2024, the organising committee will be in charge of selecting Italy’s Eurovision 2024 representative.
Marco Mengoni, Giorgia, Teresa Mannino, Lorella Cuccarini and Fiorello will all be co-hosting Sanremo 2024 alongside Amadeus, from night one to night five respectively,
