Today I bring you to the attention of the rules that must be observed for the Sanremo Festival and also how the evenings will take place.
January 15 = The press publishes its reviews of the thirty Sanremo songs. (already happened)
January 31 = The lyrics of the competing songs are published. (already happened)
February 5 = Green carpet and opening ceremony.
February 6-10 = Sanremo 2024.
FIRST EVENING – 6 FEBRUARY
All 30 competing artists perform, including those promoted from Sanremo Giovani. (26+3).
The songs will be voted only by the Press Room Tv Web.
A ranking will be drawn up, but only the top 10 classified will be communicated.
SECOND EVENING – 7 FEBRUARY
Performance of 15 songs in the competition by their respective 15 Artists competing.
The songs/Artists will be voted by the public through Televoting and by the Radio Jury.
The two voting systems in the evening will have a percentage weight on the result total vote divided as follows: Televoting 50%; Radio Jury 50%.
Following the overall result of the voting, a ranking of the 15 will be drawn up songs/artists performed in the evening.
Only the songs/artists in the top five positions will be communicated to the public.
In this evening the 15 singers who are not performing will present the 15 singers competing.
THIRD EVENING – 8 FEBRUARY
Everything takes place exactly like the second evening, the other 15 competing singers perform.
FOURTH EVENING – 9 FEBRUARY – COVER EVENING
Execution, by each of the 30 competing artists, of a cover (an already famous song), chosen from the songs that are part of the Italian and international repertoire and published by 31 December 2023.
The Artists – who will therefore also be able to sing in a foreign language on this occasion , they will have to perform together with other artists (including among these also “groups” who are their guests proclaimed fame Italians or foreigners), will be voted by the public with Televoting, by the Press Room TV and Web Jury and by the Radio Jury.
The three voting systems will have a percentage weight on the overall result of the vote in the evening as follows:
Televoting 34%: Jury from the Press Room TV and Web 33%, Radio Jury 33%, and will give rise to an Evening ranking of the 30 Artists.
Only Artists in the top 10 positions in the aforementioned ranking of the evening, will be communicated to the public.
The first-place artist may be declared the winner of the evening.
The average between the overall percentages of votes obtained by the Artists in the Evening and those obtained from the songs/Artists in the previous evenings will determine a new general ranking of the 30 songs/Artists competing.
This ranking will be announced on the final evening.
FIFTH EVENING – 10 FEBRUARY – FINAL
Performance of the 30 competing songs by the respective 30 artists.
The songs/Artists will be voted by the public through Televoting.
The general ranking of the 30 songs/Artists obtained at the Fourth Evening will be communicated to the public.
A new ranking will be determined by adding the average between the percentages of votes obtained in the evening (through televoting) and those obtained in all the previous evenings. This ranking will be communicated entirely to the public.
Reproduction, through live performance or through audio video recording, of the five songs (or part of them) of the competing artists with the highest position.
Previous votes will be reset and a new vote will be taken by the public by Televoting, by the Press Room TV and Web Jury, and by the Radio Jury.
The three voting systems will have a percentage weight on the overall result of this last vote in the evening distributed as follows: Televoting 34%: Press Room TV and Web Jury 33%; Radio Jury 33%.
The song/Artist with the highest overall percentage of votes obtained in this last vote will be proclaimed WINNER of SANREMO 2024.
TELEVOTING
To express your preference via televoting from home, simply send an SMS to the number 475.475.1. indicating the number assigned to the song-artist of each evening, the maximum number of valid votes is five for each delivery channel, therefore five SMS from mobile users and five calls from fixed users.
Televoting by telephone call can only be carried out from landlines located in Italy, it cannot be carried out from public telephones, mobile phones, or from landlines located abroad.
Televoting via SMS can only be carried out by mobile users of the telephone operators TIM, Vodafone, Wind Tre, Poste Mobile, Coop Italia, iliad, Kena and ho.mobile.
The Sanremo Festival, as well as on RAI1, can be followed in live streaming on RaiPlay for free, visible on Computer Tablets and Smartphones.
I hope I have clarified things a little for you with this post. If you have any questions, please ask in the comments.
As you may have read, you cannot vote from abroad, but then the rule says that those who have certain telephone cards listed above can vote via mobile phone. So, I think to understand, anyone who is abroad and has these cards can vote.
As for following the live broadcast, I would say that it is possible for you, given that the broadcasts start at 8.30pm Italian time, so for you it is afternoon.
That’s all, I’m waiting for your questions.
