The Sanremo Music Festival 2019 (Italian: Festival di Sanremo 2019), officially the 69th Italian Song Festival (69º Festival della canzone italiana), was the 69th annual Sanremo Music Festival, a television song contest held at the Teatro Ariston of Sanremo, organised and broadcast by RAI. The show was held between 5 February 2019 and 9 February 2019. Claudio Baglioni was the artistic director of the contest, and co-hosted it with Virginia Raffaele and Claudio Bisio.

24 entries competed in one section only, contrarily to previous editions which featured at least two sections. Mahmood emerged as the winner of the festival with his song "Soldi", earning the right to represent Italy in the Eurovision Song Contest 2019.
