The iconic Italian music festival will once again retain its traditional five-night format, marking the beginning of a new era under De Martino's leadership. The 2027 edition will be the first overseen by the new artistic director, following recent changes within the festival's organisation.
According to Italian media reports, preparations for the event are already underway in collaboration with Italy's public broadcaster, RAI.
At the same time, Sanremo 2027 has become the subject of speculation regarding potential changes to Italy's Eurovision selection process. Several Italian outlets have suggested the possible introduction of a dedicated "Eurovision Night" within the festival, which could be used to select the country's representative for the Eurovision Song Contest.
Sanremo remains Italy's most prestigious music event and continues to play a central role in the country.
With the dates now confirmed, attention turns towards the upcoming edition as preparations begin for one of Europe's most celebrated music festivals.
In 2026, Sal Da Vinci won the contest with the song 'Per Sempre Sì'.
