The Sanremo Music Festival 1976 (Italian: Festival di Sanremo 1976), officially the 26th Italian Song Festival (26º Festival della canzone italiana), was the 26th annual Sanremo Music Festival, held at the Sanremo Casino in Sanremo between 19 and 21 February 1976 and presented by Giancarlo Guardabassi.[1] The final night was broadcast by Rete Uno, while the first two nights were broadcast live only by radio.

The rules of this edition consisted of a competition among five teams, each one consisting of six singers. The two "team leaders" of each team were not subject to a vote and were automatically admitted to the finals.[1] The winner of the festival was Peppino di Capri with the song "Non lo faccio più".[1]
