Elodie. But also Irama, Annalisa, Max Pezzali. And Sugar too. These are the names that the Municipality of Cagliari is probing for the big square celebration of New Year's Eve 2024. Mayor Paolo Truzzu would like to repeat the success of the last New Year's Eve concert, when Largo Carlo Felice and Piazza Matteotti were flooded by a crowd excited for Blanco.

Now time is running out and the petals are leafing out in Palazzo Bacaredda. The budget for the artist's fee should not exceed 200 thousand euros. But the question remains as to how to choose the singer who will have to satisfy the public: will it be enough to ask for proposals from the highest bidder or will a tender be necessary, in which agents and event production companies should participate? In the second hypothesis, there is the risk of going too long while other markets grab the most coveted names.

Little or nothing comes out of the Town Hall. But the orientation is towards artists who could attract the younger generations, so as not to clash with the Alghero Liga audience.

Elodie would be at the top of the list of preferences. But now Annalisa is also on the crest of the wave with her hits. Indiscretions and ambitions. Which, however, could clash with the bureaucracy of the offices.
