The Sanremo Music Festival 2022 (Italian: 72º Festival della Canzone Italiana di Sanremo 2022) is scheduled to be the 72nd edition of the annual Sanremo Music Festival, a television song contest held in the Teatro Ariston of Sanremo, organised and broadcast by RAI. The show will be held between 1 and 5 February 2022, and will be presented for the third time in a row by Amadeus, who will also serve as the artistic director for the competition. Fiorello will return as co-host on one of the shows after appearing as a regular guest in the previous two editions.[1]
Shortly after the Eurovision Song Contest 2021, RAI confirmed that the Sanremo Music Festival would be used once again in 2022 to select the Italian representative by the winning contestant's right of first refusal.
Format
The 2022 edition of the Sanremo Music Festival will take place at the Teatro Ariston in Sanremo, Liguria, organized by the Italian public broadcaster RAI. The artistic director and the presenter for the competition is Amadeus, for the third consecutive year.
Presenters
In August 2021, RAI officially confirmed Amadeus as the presenter of the 72nd edition of the Sanremo Music Festival. Together with Amadeus are expected to be a number of co-hosts throughout the event, one of them being Fiorello on one night, a regular in the previous two editions.[1]
Voting
Voting will occur through the combination of three methods:
- Public televoting, carried out via landline, mobile phone, the contest's official mobile app, and online voting.
- Jury of the Press Room, TV, Radio and Web.
- Demoscopic jury, composed by 1000 music fans who will vote from their homes via an electronic voting system managed by Ipsos.
Their voting will be articulated as follows:[2]
- First two nights: 12 entrants will be judged by three separate panels from the jury of the Press Room, TV, Radio and Web.
- Third night: all of the entrants will be judged through a 50/50 split system by means of televoting and the demoscopic jury. The results will be combined with those of the previous nights.
- Fourth night: the same systems used on the first three nights will be put in place.
- Fifth night: the entrants will be judged by televoting alone, to be added up to the results obtained that far; ultimately, a final voting round (again a sum of televoting and the two juries) will be held among the top 3, which will determine the winner.
Selections
Sanremo Giovani 2021
Unlike previous editions, the Newcomers' section was not included in the Festival, but a similar selection was held to decree the three places reserved in the Big Artist section.[3][4] The artists competing in the new format were selected through two separate contests: Standard section and Area Sanremo.
Standard selection
On October 20, 2021, Rai Commission for Sanremo Music Festival 2022 announced a list of 711 acts, but only 30 artists coming from all Italian regions -excluding Basilicata and Valle d'Aosta- and from abroad were selected in the first phase.[5]
On November 22, 2022, Rai Commission announced the eight finalists.[6]

Area Sanremo
After the auditions, RAI Commission - composed by Amadeus, Gianmarco Mazzi, Claudio Fasulo, Massimo Martelli and Leonardo de Amicis - identified 4 finalists for the competition among the 330 acts:[6][7]

Final
On December 15, 2021, the twelve finalists performed their songs at Sanremo Casino in Sanremo, with the show Sanremo Giovani 2021 broadcast on Rai 1 and presented by Amadeus. The three winners of the night will participate in Sanremo 2022 with a new entry.[8][4] Yuman, Tananai and Matteo Romano were chosen as the winners.
