The 72nd edition of the annual Sanremo Music Festival held in the Teatro Ariston of Sanremo between 1 and 5 February 2022. The artistic director and the host for the competition was Amadeus, for the third consecutive year together with five cohosts. Ornella Muti, Lorena Cesarini, Drusilla Foer, Maria Chiara Giannetta and the last night Sabrina Ferilli.
