About Sanremo 2021

The 71st edition of Sanremo Music Festival took place between the 2nd and 6th March 2021. Much later than usual, due to delays owing to the ongoing pandemic. This also caused other changes for the festival. After many weeks of exchanges between Artistic Director Amadeus, the CTS and Rai, the festival did not have a live audience.

Despite the protocols, the festival went ahead with 26 participating artists. Alongside Amadeus and Floriello, the shows were co-hosted by Matilda De Angelis, Elodie, Vittoria Ceretti, Barbara Palombelli and Beatrice Venezi. Night one was opened with a performance of “Fai Rumore” by Diodato, who of course won the 2020 edition.

Eventually on the last night, 26 became three, as Måneskin, Francesca Michielin & Fedez and Ermal Meta advanced to the super-final. During the super-final Måneskin triumphed with a staggering 53.5% of the vote. Afterwards this success translated to Eurovision victory, winning the contest in Rotterdam with 524 points.
