Italy: Sanremo Giovani 2023 tonight!

Italian music lovers will have the opportunity to get a first taste of the upcoming 74th San Remo Festival tonight, as the Sanremo Giovani 2023 will be held in the small town of Liguria, from which three artists will compete in February in the great celebration of Italian music.

For the third consecutive year, Sanremo Giovani is not included in the Festival’s programme, with Amadeus keen to enhance its prestige by giving the new voices of Italian music the opportunity to introduce themselves to the ever-demanding Italian audience.

A total of twelve artists will take part in tonight’s show. The selection of the twelve participants was the result of a very extensive process that involved more than 550 artists until the final twelve were shortlisted.

Finalists

In particular, the artists who will take part tonight in the Sanremo Giovani 2023 Grand Final are:

• bnkr44 – “Effetti speciali”
• Clara – “Boulevard”
• Grenbaud – “Mama”
• Jacopo Sol – “Cose che non sai”
• Lor3n – “Fiore d’inverno”
• Santi Francesi – “Occhi tristi”
• Tancredi – “Perle”
• Vale –  “Stronza”
• Dipinto – “Criminali”
• Fellow – “Alieno”
• Nausica – “Favole”
• Omini – “Mare Forza 9oi”

The selection of the three artists who will participate in February at Sanremo 2024 alongside the big names of Italian music will be determined 50% by the judgement of a jury together with the Festival’s artistic director, Amadeus, and 50% by the popular will of Italian viewers.

The presenter of tonight’s event will, of course, be Amadeus, and the show is expected to start at 21:30 CET. You can watch Sanremo Giovani 2023 through Rai1’s channel by clicking HERE.

This year, Italy was represented for the second time by Marco Mengoni, after winning Sanremo 2023, with the song Due Vite. The song with 350 points won fourth place in the grand final!
