Sara Guglielmetti The next edition of the Sanremo Music Festival is now very close , with Stefano De Martino serving as artistic director and host for the first time. However, it seems a well-known singer has been rejected. Here's who we're talking about.
Sanremo 2027: The Big names competing will be announced in a month.
In about a month, Stefano De Martino will announce the 26 Big Artists competing in the 77th edition of the Sanremo Music Festival, which will take place from February 16 to 20, 2027. There is therefore great anticipation to find out who will take the Ariston stage to compete for the final victory. Numerous names have been floated in recent months, including a well-known singer, who, however, has apparently already been turned down by the Neapolitan host and artistic director.
Who are we talking about? Arisa , winner of the Newcomers category in 2009 with "Sincerità" and of the Big category in 2014 with "Controvento." The artist herself announced it.
Sanremo 2027, Arisa won't be there: "De Martino said no to me."
Arisa will not be among the Big names at the 77th edition of the Sanremo Festival.
The singer herself, a guest on the "Che Tempo Che Fa" panel, broke the news . Interviewed by Fabio Fazio to discuss the new edition of "The Voice Senior ," Arisa revealed that she had sent a song to Stefano De Martino to perform on the Ariston stage, but received a no: "Stefano De Martino and I are friends, and after I sent the song, he kindly made it clear to me that this year it wasn't the right thing . But I wasn't disappointed; I think I'd do Sanremo every year." The news quickly spread across the internet, disappointing the singer's many fans and sparking curiosity to know who, if a singer of Arisa's caliber is rejected, will take to the stage at the music festival.
