The competition was divided in two sections. The winner of the Big Artists section was Diodato with the song "Fai rumore", while Leo Gassmann won the Newcomers' section with "Vai bene così". As a result of his victory, Diodato earned the right to represent Italy in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020; however, after the contest's cancellation, Diodato performed "Fai rumore" in the non-competitive replacement show Eurovision: Europe Shine a Light.

On 19 December 2019, the ten finalists performed their songs at Sanremo Casino in Sanremo, with the show Sanremo Giovani 2019 broadcast on Rai 1 presented by Amadeus. The evening is divided into 5 duels, the five selected by the jury, televote, music commission and demoscopic jury were added to the two entries of Area Sanremo and Sanremo Young's winner, for a total of eight young emerging artists in the category of the Newcomers' section of the Sanremo Music Festival 2020.
