The Sanremo Music Festival 2000 (Italian: Festival di Sanremo 2000), officially the 50th Italian Song Festival (50º Festival della canzone italiana), was the 50th annual Sanremo Music Festival, held at the Teatro Ariston in Sanremo, province of Imperia, in late February 2000 and broadcast by Rai 1.

The show was presented by Fabio Fazio, supported by Luciano Pavarotti, Teo Teocoli and Inés Sastre. Composers Pino Donaggio and Giorgio Moroder and lyricist Carla Vistarini served as the artistic directors.[1]

The winners of the Big Artists section were the group Piccola Orchestra Avion Travel with the song "Sentimento".[1]

Jenny B won the "Newcomers" section with the song "Semplice sai", and Samuele Bersani won the Mia Martini Critics Award with the song "Replay".[1]

After every night, Alessia Marcuzzi and the comedy duo Fichi D'India hosted DopoFestival, a talk show about the festival with the participation of singers and journalists.[1]
