Sanremo 2026 will take place from 24 to 28 February and it will once again serve as Italy’s selection method for the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 in Vienna. Should the winning artist decline the opportunity to represent Italy, RAI will turn to the next highest-placed act, as happened last year when Olly declined the invitation and runner-up Lucio Corsi went on to Eurovision instead.
Italy’s Eurovision journey
Italy has participated in the Eurovision Song Contest since the very beginning and have always been considered a powerhouse in the contest. The country has won the contest on three occasions in 1964, 1990 and 2021. Italy withdrew after 1997, returning again in 2011 with Raphael Gualazzi who sang ‘Madness Of Love’. Raphael placed second in the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest after scoring 189 points.
Italy’s most recent entry in 2025 was “Volevo essere un duro” by Lucio Corsi. At the close of voting, Italy scored a total of 256 points in the Eurovision 2025 Grand Final, placing 5th. Of these, 159 points came from the juries, whilst the remaining 97 points came from the televote.
