Collaborator

February 27 – 01:14 – MILAN

The third evening of the 2026 Sanremo Festival features a new “five” favorites of the public and the radio jury. Summing up what happened in the previous two evenings, we remind you that on the first evening all 30 competitors performed and were voted only by the jury in the press room, which drew up a top 5 in no particular order made up of Serena Brancale, Fulminacci, Arisa, Ditonellapiaga and Fedez-Masini. On the second evening, the first 15 big names performed and a new top five was drawn up, voted by the public at home and the radio jury, made up of Tommaso Paradiso, LDA & AKA 7Even, Nayt, Ermal Meta and Fedez-Masinithe latter being the only ones to confirm themselves (Ditonellapiaga and Fulminacci however not). On Thursday evening the other 15 performed, including Serena Brancale and Arisa who were among the favorites on the first day. Let’s see who voted and how it went.

Top 5 third evening Sanremo 2026

Let’s find out who the five most voted by the public and radio in the second evening are, always indicated randomly:

  • Arisa – Magical fairy tale
  • Sayf – I like you a lot
  • Luchè – Labyrinth
  • Serena Brancale – Here with me
  • Sal Da Vinci – Forever yes

The next rankings

Next evening is the fourth and is dedicated to covers and duets: all the juries will vote, but the verdict will concern exclusively this competition and will not influence the competition of the unreleased songs presented at Sanremo 2026. The actual competition instead resumes Saturday 28 February with the finalwhen all the juries will return to vote: Televoting (34%), the Press Room, TV and Web Jury (33%) and the Radio Jury (33%). From these votes, together with the results of the first three eveningsthe general ranking will be obtained and also in this case only the first five positions will be communicated to the public, always in random order. THE five finalists will perform again and the juries will vote once again, thus giving us the final ranking and the winner of the Festival. For this last phase, however, the public at home will be able to express themselves only one telephone preference, unlike the three allowed in previous votes.
