The 2025 Sanremo Festival ushers in a new era, bidding farewell to Amadeus and welcoming Carlo Conti as its host. This beloved figure brings a wealth of experience to the iconic event. However, the changes don’t stop there. Who is putting pressure on the new artistic director to participate in the music competition? A beloved singer from the 1970s whispers in the shadows.
Among the significant changes to the festival is the adjustment of the evening schedules. After years of criticism for broadcasts that ran late into the night, the organization has decided to reduce the broadcast times, concluding each evening by 1 am. This change is accompanied by a presumed reduction in the number of participants, allowing for a more streamlined and focused presentation.
The festival’s dates have also been shifted. Traditionally held in the first week of February, Sanremo 2025 will take place from February 11th to 15th. This strategic shift aims to avoid conflicts with other television and sporting events, ensuring a wider audience reach. Additionally, the historic division between Big and New Proposals will return, offering greater visibility to up-and-coming talents. Another anticipated return is that of the Dopofestival, offering insights, interviews, and lighthearted moments after the official evenings.
Sanremo: A Famous Singer’s Plea to Carlo Conti: “Choose Me!”
While the identities of the guests remain a mystery, whispers abound. There are rumors of the possible participation of Maneskin, the rock band that has captivated the world. Their presence would be a major coup for the festival, guaranteeing entertainment and international recognition. Regarding the co-hosts and competing singers, speculation is still in its early stages.
According to the weekly “Today”, Marcella Bella is reportedly vying for Carlo Conti’s attention as a Big of Sanremo 2025. The singer, who is spending her summer in her Ibiza villa, appears determined to return to the Ariston stage. Additionally, Alexia has also expressed interest in making a comeback, adding to the growing list of potential participants. One thing is certain: this promises to be an edition of rebirth and renewal, seamlessly blending tradition with innovation. With Carlo Conti at the helm, the return of the Big/New Proposals division, the Dopofestival, and a more efficient scheduling approach, success is guaranteed.
