Friday night saw the final of the annual Sanremo newcomers show, Sanremo Giovani, take place. A fantastic show hosted by Amadeus and Gianni Morandi saw all twelve finalists give their all, competing for a place in the main contest. Every contestant did their upmost best, and Amadeus even said he would personally prefer to advance all competitors to the main stage, after previously upping the amount of winners from three to six.
Overall, after a strong contest, the six winners were named as gIANMARIA, Shari, Colla Zio, Sethu, Will, and OLLY, with gIANMARIA winning the show overall. You can read more about these artists, and the six who unfortunately didn’t make it, in our previous article here.
They will join the 22 previously announced ‘big’ artists on the Ariston stage in February, and could potentially become Italy’s Eurovision representative in Liverpool.
That however wasn’t the only excitement from last night, as throughout the show, every Sanremo 2023 artist took to the stage to officially announce the title of their entry. The Sanremo Giovani winners also confirmed their song titles at the end.
