Sanremo 2019 – Voting

There are four groups who decide the outcome of Sanremo 2019:

  • Press Jury: Sanremo's accredited journalists
  • Demoscopic Poll: A sample of 300 fans
  • Expert Jury: Eight professionals from the music/entertainment/culture industry

The voting system changes between the nights. For the first three nights, the ranking is determined by televoting (40%), press jury (30%) and demoscopic jury (30%).

For the last two nights televoting has 50%, press jury keeps 30% and and expert jury 20%.

Final ranking and top 3 are given by the combination of all 5 nights. Winner will be selected through the voting system of night 5.
