Because of some disagreements with the municipality of Sanremo (organizer of the event), the major record companies decided to boycott the event and not enter their artists in the competition. As a result, the vast majority of the participants were emerging artists.[1] The winner of the festival was Gilda with "Ragazza del sud", a song which was criticized because of its use of stereotypes about people of Southern Italy.[1]
