Among the novelties of this year, the possibility of changing the captain of his team every evening stands out, choosing among the five artists lined up as owners. The new rule introduces a further strategic element, allowing the fantasy hidden to maximize the points obtained from the bonuses related to positions in the standings.

The Fantasanremo 2025 regulation has also been enriched with new bonuses and malus, which make the game even more unpredictable and compelling. In addition to traditional bonuses and malus, daily bonus and malus have been introduced, which remain secret until just before each evening and are valid only for the evening corresponding to the day they are revealed; Bonus linked to the afterfestival, a bonus “package” dedicated to artists who will participate in the program; Premium bonus, designed in collaboration with the partners of Fantasanremo 2025.
Each fantasy can form up to a maximum of five teams and participate with them in a maximum of 25 alloys, bearing in mind that each league can only host a team per user. At the moment, the data show that among the captains most chosen by the fantasy, Achille Lauro, Elodie, Olly, Giorgia and Tony Effe appear. It is already possible to identify some tendencies and curiosities that characterize the Fantasanremo 2025: for example, there is a great creativity in the choice of the names of the teams, which often recall the lyrics of the songs in the race or ironize on events and characters related to the Festival. Some examples include “Mengoni’s kidney colic”, “The country cousins in Sanremo”, “Albano’s mosquito” and “Annalisa’s amaretti”. The game strategies are also more and more elaborate, with some fantasy hiders who rely on complex algorithms and spreadsheets to optimize their choices. Others, on the other hand, prefer to follow the instinct and focus on their favorite artists, regardless of the experts’ forecasts.
