About Sanremo 2025
Sanremo has undergone some changes following the addition of new artistic director Carlo Conti. Namely, Sanremo and Sanremo Giovani have become essentially separate, the number of big artists is smaller (24, compared to 30 in 2024) and cover night will no longer be a part of the final rankings. The announcement of the 24 ‘big’ artists competing at the festival will occur on December 2nd on Italian channel TG1.
Italy’s Eurovision History
