THEPulcinella’s secret, Stefano De Martino will be the host of Sanremo 2027. The confirmation arrived ahead of Carlo Conti’s handover during the Sanremo final. So it’s him, the toy boy of Your business in a white shirt and tight trousers to take the festival. Also from the agencies comes the name of Antonella Clericiin a role that would seem of equal weight.

Rai finally decided, even if De Martino in Sanremo was a secret to no one. The conductor – dancer, former edi competitor FriendsBelen Rodriguez’s ex and star showman of the small screen who has had a rapid rise thanks to to the ratings success of Your business – takes home the event of the year: the TV test that brought hosts to glory and destroyed others (including expert hosts such as Carrà and Ventura).

For Clerici, however, it is a return, the presenter he hosted Sanremo in 2010 (alone and successfully) and in 2005 with Paolo Bonolis. Last year she was co-host on the first evening of the festival.
In recent days Conti had confirmed his exit from the festival after returning in 2025 (in total there are five of his Sanremos). In today’s press conference, he had instead mentioned a stay. But now there is confirmation from Martino. It remains to be seen whether the investiture of Stefano (36 years old, Neapolitan) also concerns the artistic directionthen the choice of all the songs etc.
Undoubtedly, due to his qualities as a performer, the relatively young host represents a great opportunity for broad-spectrum hosting, precisely as a true showman (genre Hugh Jackman at the Oscars and in musicals). We’ll see, the beauty is there, and that too wants its part in the 5-evening show.
