Sanremo 2025: a second evening without lightning (except Damiano)

Gianluca Gazzoli will host Sanremo Giovani

This morning it is the official communication has arrived regarding the regulations of the Sanremo 2026 festival which will be held in the coastal town from 24 to 28 February and which will see 26 big names of our song competing.

A few minutes ago, on Tg1 at 8.00 pm, the host and artistic director of the event, Carlo Contirevealed the name of the one he will lead Sanremo Youth. The chosen one is Gianluca Gazzoliface of BSMT, one of the most successful Italian podcasts. Gazzoli, starting from next November 11th, will host five second evenings on Rai2 dedicated to the selections that will promote two of the four artists at the Sanremo festival – the other two will come from the Sanremo area – who will be competing in the section New Proposals.

As regards the names of the big names in the race, most likely, as per the manual, they will be revealed on the first Sunday of December, but Conti, with a smile, said he hoped to be able to bring it forward, perhaps by a week, “if I can bring it forward I’ll take this task off me”.
