February 2nd, 2024
Ready. Set. Go. We're almost there. Tuesday, February 6th marks the beginning of Sanremo 2024, and it will accompany us throughout the week until the final on Saturday, February 10th. The hype around the Festival is escalating as the days approach, and simultaneously, information about who will take the stage at the Ariston Theater, what they will sing, how they will dress, who will make it to the top 3, and who will take home the FantaSanremo prize multiplies. We pretty much know everything. Or almost everything. Shall we do a quick review? This will be the last time as creative director and host for Amadeus, who, for the occasion, will be joined by Marco Mengoni, Giorgia, Teresa Mannino, Lorella Cuccarini, and Fiorello. In the competition, 30 artists will clash, including veterans like Fiorella Mannoia and Loredana Bertè, and newcomers to the most famous stage in Italy like Big Mama and Clara Soccini. Guests include Russell Crowe and John Travolta, and we already know the show won't end before two in the morning. We'll discover the other details night after night. The only remaining question we can answer is: where and with whom will we watch it?
The 74th edition of the Italian Song Festival will be broadcast live on Rai1, Radio2, and RaiPlay. The luckiest ones will see it in the Ariston audience (tickets sold out in less than 24 hours), most probably, others will watch the singers' performances comfortably from their own couch or gather at a friend's apartment to comment together. But there are also other possibilities. Various venues and associations organize collective viewings to hum the choruses, review the looks, and chat together, celebrating Sanremo as that all-Italian collective ritual that it truly is. G-Club has selected some around the peninsula.
nss G-Club with melodyseilatop - Sanremelody

Food and drinks to nibble and sip between comments on the artists' looks or a little singing. The plus that will add a good dose of cuteness to Sanremo fun? Everything will be MyMelody themed.

When: Friday, February 9th

Circolo Arci Bellezza - Sanremo Bellezza 2024
The final night, which this year will take place on Saturday, February 10th, is always eagerly awaited, revealing the winner of the Festival. Despite being traditionally the longest, everyone watches. And what if, for once, we don't do it at home but experience it live on a big screen in the company of friends and other Sanremo enthusiasts? Circolo Arci Bellezza in Milan offers a group event presented by the Disco Pianobar Orchestra, which will virtually transport us to the city of flowers with a handful of super-secret guests, animating, hosting, and commenting on everything that happens.
When: Saturday, February 10th
Where: Circolo Arci Bellezza, via Bellezza, 16, Milan
Cost: Admission with Arci card
BASE Milano - DRAMADEUS
Get ready to dance, sing, laugh, and enjoy the first and final night of Sanremo 2024 like never before. BASE Milano presents DRAMADEUS, a double event to share the Festival's viewing with a "crazy listening group" to listen to the 30 competing songs, vote for the best and worst, comment, and have fun with drag queens & drag kings, lip sync, live music, burlesque, stand-up comedy, and more. In short, a show within a show.
When: February 6th and 10th
Where: BASE, via Bergognone, 34, Milan
Cost: 5 euros
Miscusi - La Finalissima di Sanremo
Combining food and Sanremo? It's possible thanks to Miscusi, a restaurant chain in Milan and Verona that has decided to organize a special event for the Festival final. On Saturday 10th, you can dine on pasta, the restaurant's specialty, while watching the performances of Fiorella Mannoia, Emma, Alessandra Amoroso, Mahmood, Irama, and other competing artists. Enjoying a good plate of ricotta and spinach tortellini or sorghum and corn fusilli with Genovese pesto might make the wrong notes and presenter gaffes more pleasant? Maybe.
When: Saturday, February 10th
Where: Miscusi, Corso Porta Nuova, Verona, or via G. Leopardi, 13, Milan, or viale Bligny, 7, Milan
Cost: 10 euros
Latte Fresco - Salotto Sanremo
An effervescent, fun, colorful, and noisy Sanremo, with dances, songs, comments, laughs, and everything that the Roman nights of Latte Fresco can offer, is what awaits those who decide to watch the Festival live at Largo Venue. Exceptional conductors @iwanda_sbelletti_drag_official and @leoilmiodj. Ready to unleash?
When: from Tuesday, February 6th to Saturday, February 10th
Where: Largo Venue, via Biordo Michelotti, 4, Rome
Cost: Free entry
Mercato Sonato - Salotto Sanremo
The Mercato Sonato is the cultural center of the San Donato neighborhood in Bologna, entirely managed by the Orchestra Senzaspine, a youth orchestra with over 400 members. On the occasion of the Sanremo Festival, the multifunctional spaces will host the live broadcast to follow the performances of the competing singers, admire their looks, and of all those who will take the stage at the Ariston. What's better than arguing with the neighboring seat that you might not know about whether Annalisa's song or Ghali's is better, whether Diodato or Alessandra Amoroso is more elegant?
When: from Tuesday, February 6th to Saturday, February 10th
Where: Mercato Sonato, via Tartini, 3, Bologna
Cost: Admission with Arci card
Arcigay Pegaso Catania - Sanremo Watch Party
Will Annalisa really win as the predictions want, or perhaps, will it be an outsider like Rose Villain? Will we learn the chorus of Geolier's or Negramaro's song first? Will Angelina Mango's look or Rose Villain's get more applause? Why not find out together with friends and strangers at the Sanremo Watch Party by Arcigay Pegaso Catania, a collective viewing that will follow all the festival nights. For the final, there will also be a fabulous Apericena (5€ per dish) and many surprises.
When: from Tuesday, February 6th to Saturday, February 10th
Where: Arcigay Pegaso Catania, via Verona, 84/86, Catania
Cost: 5 euros
