Acts will have performed multiple times for different kinds of juries, but all of them get to perform their entry during the Saturday showcase.The 26 competing acts/songs:Aiello - OraAnnalisa - DieciArisa - Potevi fare di piùBugo - E invece sìColapesce e Dimartino - Musica leggerissimaComa_Cose - Fiamme negli occhiErmal Meta - Un milione di cose da dirtiExtraliscio feat.
