The first night of Italy’s Festival di Sanremo has just ended, with all 29 contestants performing their songs. While the full results are not known, we do know the artists who finished in the top five positions after tonight’s vote.
Festival di Sanremo took place in the city of Sanremo at Teatro Ariston, just as the previous years. The 29 contestants performed alongside the festival’s orchestra, and their songs are now available on the streaming platforms.
The show was hosted by Carlo Conti and co-hosted by Antonella Clerici and Gerry Scotti. Tonight, the press jury cast their votes after the final performance. The former Eurovision contestant Achille Lauro, who represented San Marino in 2022, is among the jury’s favorites.

This year brings some changes to the format of the Festival di Sanremo. On the first night, as usual, the press jury voted after all 29 songs were performed live.

Instead, the audience will only know which artists made it into the top five, but in a completely random order.
The rankings from the first three nights are crucial for the contestants, as they will contribute to the final result in the Grand Final.
After the first night, the artists who made it into the top five are:
- Brunori Sas – “L’albero delle noci”
