Area Sanremo[]

Area Sanremo 2016 was a contest created by the comune of Sanremo. In August and September 2016, an itinerant series of lessons involving Italian music schools and cultural associations, named Area Sanremo Tour, was organized to encourage artists to compete in the contest.[14] 412 songs entered Area Sanremo.[15] In October 2016, a series of lessons about music and the music industry was offered to all competing artists.[15] On 2 November 2016, competing artists were reduced to 70 acts, selected by a commission composed of Massimo Cotto, which also presided it, Stefano Senardi, also serving as the artistic director of the event, and Maurizio Caridi.[16] Cotto, Senardi and Caridi, together with Antonio Vandoni and Andrea Mirò, also composed the commission which selected the 8 winners of the contest—Braschi, Andrea Corona, Marika Adele, Carlo Bolacchi, Carmen Alessandrello, Ylenia Lucisano, Valeria Farinacci and Diego Esposito—which were announced on 12 November 2016.[17][18] Finally, RAI chose two acts among the eight winners—Braschi and Valeria Farinacci—which were allowed to compete in the Newcomers' section of the Sanremo Music Festival 2017. The selected entries were announced by Carlo Conti on 12 December 2016, during the TV show Sarà Sanremo.[19]

The contest organized by RAI to select six of the eight contestants of the Newcomers' section of the Sanremo Music Festival 2017 was named Sanremo Giovani. 560 acts entered the contest.[20] On 21 October 2016, an internal commission reduced the number of competing artists to 60, eliminating the remaining ones. Following the rules of the contest, the winner of the singing contest Castrocaro Music Festival 2016—Ethan Lara—was also allowed to compete in the following phase of the competition as an additional entry.[21] On 25 October 2016, the 61 selected acts auditioned in Rome.[21] Following their performances, 12 artists, announced on 4 November 2016, were selected as the finalists of Sanremo Giovani.[20] The final of the contest was held during the TV show Sarà Sanremo on 12 December 2016. Artists performed their songs in 4 different groups. One artist for each group was eliminated.

Finally, among the 8 remaining artists, two were eliminated as a result of a new voting. In both phases, eliminations were decided by a jury, composed of Massimo Ranieri, Fabio Canino, Anna Foglietta, Amadeus and Andrea Delogu.[19] Francesco Guasti, Lele, Leonardo Lamacchia, Maldestro, Marianne Mirage and Tommaso Pini were chosen as contestants of the Newcomers' section of the Sanremo Music Festival 2017.[19][22]
