Sanremo 2024 // Angelina Mango wins Sanremo 2024

'La noia' hovered around the top of the score board throughout the festival and took the all important primo position by the final evening.

At just 22-years-old Angelina from Basilicata in Southern Italy debuted at Sanremo Music Festival this year. She rose to prominence in the Italian music industry after participating in the 22d edition of talent show Amici di Maria De Filippi in 2023 where she collected a Lunezia Prize for musical valorisation in Italy.

Angelina is relatively new to the Italian music scene - especially for Sanremo standards. In October 2023 she performed her maiden tour Voglia di Vivere Tour which started in Naples and was sold out in the main clubs of the peninsula.

It's to be noted that the winner of Sanremo will not necessarily go onto to represent Italy at Eurovision 2024. A decision is sometimes made on stage, shortly after the show or days later.

The Sanremo Festival is a traditional music festival in Europe, which reached its 74th edition this year. Since 1951, the year of its debut, the festival has been held at the Casino of Sanremo, but since 1977, all editions have been held at the Teatro Ariston, except for 1990, when it was hosted at the Nuovo Mercato dei Fiori.

The festival was a launching pad for singers from Italy: Andrea Bocelli, Paola e Chiara, Giorgia, Laura Pausini, Eros Ramazzotti, Gigliola Cinquetti, etc.

We remind that for the first time the Moldova 1 TV broadcast live the 74th edition of the Italian Song Festival in Sanremo.
