The Sanremo Music Festival 1981 (Italian: Festival di Sanremo 1981), officially the 31st Italian Song Festival (31º Festival della canzone italiana), was the 31st annual Sanremo Music Festival, held at the Teatro Ariston in Sanremo between 5 and 7 February 1981 and broadcast by Rete Uno. The show was hosted by Claudio Cecchetto, assisted by the actress Eleonora Vallone and by the singer Nilla Pizzi (winner of the festival in 1951 and 1952).[1]

The winner of the festival was Alice with the song "Per Elisa".[1]

Massimo Troisi should have participated in the final night of the festival with three segments as a comedian, but just before he took the stage, he decided not to appear because of the cuts to his monologues that were required by RAI executives.[1]
