According to the rules of this edition every song was performed in a double performance by a couple of singers or groups, with some artists performing multiple songs.[1]

Initially the songs accepted for the festival were 20 then dropped to 19, as it is excluded from the second evening "La cosa più bella" performed by Carla Boni and Tonina Torrielli, because it was already published in a juke box of Milan in a version engraved by Cristina Jorio. The winner of the Festival was "Corde della mia chitarra", performed by Claudio Villa and Nunzio Gallo.[1]
