In the presence of the two hosts of the forthcoming event, Fabio Fazio and Luciana Littizzetto, of the musical Director Mauro Pagani and of the President of the IPSOS Institute Nando Pagnoncelli, RAI Radiotelevisione Italiana will be holding a special press conference tomorrow, Monday 4 February, at 13:00 CET, in order to talk about the Sanremo Festival, that will take place from the 12 to the 16 of February and that will be broadcasted live on RAI 1 channel.

While waiting and preparing for the press conference, who can be watched live here, RAI also published on its official website the 8 songs of the artist that are going to compete in the Giovani Category:

• Blastema – Dietro l’intima ragione
• Il Cile – Le parole non servono più
• Irene Ghiotto – Baciami?
