In a press conference in Sanremo, Amadeus and broadcaster Rai revealed the 15 performers that will take part in the second evening of the Sanremo Festival. The show is expected to end around 01:40 CET.

Tonight they were judged by the radio jury (50%) and the Italian televote (50%). In a special presentation, we will be introduced to the mascots of the 2026 Winter Olympics, to be held in Milan-Cortina.

Here is the running order for Wednesday. The other 15 will perform tomorrow, but they will be part of the show. In a draw of lots, one of tomorrow’s acts was chosen to introduce one of tonight’s performers along with Amadeus and Giorgia. In this way, as they enter the stage to present, a clip of their song will be played, so that we will get a taste of all 30 competing songs tonight.
