The first semi-finalist for Una Voce per San Marino 2025 has been determined, as Justine Mayer wins the Tour Music Fest 2024.
80 semi-finalists for Una Voce per San Marino 2025
Justine Mayer won her ticket to attempt to represent San Marino at Eurovision 2025, winning the Tour Music Fest. The festival, which aims to promote emerging acts into the industry, was held in San Marino on December 2nd.
French singer Justine’s prize for winning the competition was a pass directly into the semi-finals of Una Voce per San Marino. The remaining 79 acts will be chosen through the Academy stage of the selection process. In total, 80 acts will advance to the semi-final stage of the selection.
It comes as more details surrounding the Sammarinese selection have been revealed. Four semi-finals will be held for non-Sammarinese acts, with two advancing to the final per show. A separate semi-final will then be held purely for Sammarinese artists, with one qualifier.
Una Voce per San Marino will take place across the middle of February 2025. The final of the show will be held on February 22nd, 2025 in the Teatro Nuovo in Dogana. In a change to previous years, no “Big Artists” are already qualified for the Grand Final. The winning song will be chosen through a five-piece jury.
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 14 times, qualifying for the grand final in three. Their best result was in 2019, with Serhat and “Say Na Na Na”.
Spanish band Megara represented San Marino in 2024 with the song “11:11”. They failed to qualify from the second semi-final, placing fourteenth and receiving sixteen points from the televote.
