What is Una Voce Per San Marino?
UVPSM is known among Eurovision fans as perhaps the most chaotic national final in Eurovision–and for good reason. Micronation San Marino subsidizes its participation through the UVPSM application fees and accepted over 100 participants in 2023.
Following a marathon of jury-only qualifying rounds, the top songs compete in a live show to represent San Marino at Eurovision. But here’s the catch–no one involved has to be Sammarinese. Una Voce draws participants from around Europe and around the world, giving everyone the opportunity to represent Europe’s favorite micronation.
San Marino’s Eurovision Journey
As one of the smallest countries in Europe, San Marino made its debut in the competition in 2008 with Miodio and the song “Complice”. Since then they have participated in the competition 13 times (3 of which where they qualified for the Grand Final), and their best result was in 2019, with Serhat and “Say Na Na Na”.
Italian band Piqued Jacks represented San Marino in 2023 in Liverpool with the song “Like An Animal”. The band performed in the second semi-final, but unfortunately didn’t qualify for the Grand Final. Overall, San Marino placed joint-last, receiving 0 points from the televote.
Do you recognise any of the names in the lineup? Who would you like to see represent the microstate in Malmö? As always, let us know what you think by commenting below.

[…] I’m wildly assuming that if you enjoy Eurovision, you enjoy music. Eurovision isn’t just the 37(-ish) official Eurovision songs we get each year. There’s a whole host of new artists to discover through the NF process. Hundreds of songs and artists were involved in selections last year (and over 100 of those songs were just from San Marino). […]
