The Sanremo Festival 2025 is getting ready to enter the heart of its kermesse, an event eagerly awaited by viewers and characterized not only by the artists' performances, but also by the fundamental role of the juries.

Below, an analysis of the juries active in this edition and their specific weights.
Article Key Points
The juries of Sanremo 2025
For this year's Festival, which marks Carlo Conti's return to the Ariston stage, three different juries are planned: the public televoting, the press room, TV and web, and the radio jury. Each jury will have a different influence on the rankings, with the absence, compared to last year, of the demoscopic jury.
Voting night by night
The opening night, scheduled for Tuesday, February 11, will feature all the artists, with exclusive voting by the press, TV and web. At the end, only the five most voted artists will be revealed, without specifying the order.
On the evenings of Wednesday 12 and Thursday 13 February, half of the big names will perform each day, with voting entrusted to both radio and the public. On these occasions, each jury will influence the provisional ranking by 50%. At the end of Thursday, the top five of the general ranking will be revealed, based on the cumulative votes of the previous evenings.
February 14th will be dedicated to covers and duets, with all the juries active. During this evening, the weight will be distributed as follows: 34% for televoting, 33% for the press room and web, and 33% for the radio. The first five positions of the evening will be announced, but these will not influence the final result of the Festival.
The final vote
On Saturday, February 15, the artists' performances will return and all juries will participate again. The votes will be added again from the previous evenings, thus determining the final ranking for the 29 participants. Positions 29 to 6 will be announced, while the top five will be announced regardless of the order of arrival.
For the latter, voting will be reopened, maintaining the same weight percentages of the juries. The votes in this phase will be added to those previously received, with the exception of the evening dedicated to covers. Only at the end of this phase will the winner of the Sanremo Festival 2025 be decreed.
The vote for Sanremo Giovani
At the same time, the Sanremo Giovani competition will also take place on Wednesday and Thursday evenings. Wednesday evening will present the “New Proposals” in direct clashes, evaluated by all the juries. The winners will continue to compete on Thursday, where the jury with the same percentages of votes will finally decide the winner of Sanremo Giovani.
How to vote from home
To vote from home, viewers can send an SMS to 475 475 1 or call 894 001. Each telephone can cast a maximum of three votes per evening, at a cost of 0,50 cents.
