SANREMO 2025: Cattelan will host “Sanremo Giovani” and the Dopofestival

Music news

Carlo Conti's new Sanremo 2025 is starting to take shape.

This evening on Tg1 Carlo Conti announced that “Sanremo Giovani” will be a five-episode talent show.

A show that will serve to select the young people who will participate in the Festival and this talent show will be hosted by Alessandro Cattelan.

Conti also announced that Cattelan will also be the host of the revived Dopo Festival which – as already announced by Artistic Director Carlo Conti – returns to the screens of Rai 1 from 11 to 14 February, at the end of each evening of the festival.

ON AIR

“Sanremo Giovani” will be broadcast in the late evening on Rai 2, from 12 November to 10 December. This year the journey towards Sanremo 2025 for the new proposals will be a real talent show that will begin on TV in November with “Sanremo Giovani”, to get to know and select emerging talents who dream of performing on the stage of the Ariston Theatre.
Alessandro Cattelan will accompany the young artists, who will be evaluated by the Music Commission during the episodes, and will talk about their journey, made up of challenges, successes and eliminations, up to the final of “Sanremo Giovani – It will be Sanremo” on 18 December, on Rai 1.

But Alessandro's commitment does not end here: in February, in fact, he will host the “Afterfestival”, which – as already announced by the Artistic Director Carlo Conti – returns to the screens of Rai 1 from 11 to 14 February, at the end of each evening of the festival.

THE TERMS

Lastly, the registration deadline for “Sanremo Giovani” has been extended. The deadline to register has in fact been postponed to 7.00 pm on October 10th compared to the previously communicated date of October 8th.
