The winners of the Big Artists section were Al Bano and Romina Power with the song "Ci sarà", while Patty Pravo won the Critics Award with "Per una bambola". Eros Ramazzotti won the Newcomers section, held for the first time this year, with the song "Terra promessa".[1]

"Favola triste", sung by Silvia Conti, was disqualified because it had been published earlier. It was replaced with the song "Pomeriggio a Marrakech", sung by the duo I Trilli.[1] Loretta Goggi, which was supposed to participate with the song "Un amore grande", withdrew last minute and was replaced by Pupo, who eventually ranked fourth.[1]
