San Marino in the Eurovision Song Contest
◄2022 2023 2024►

San Marino participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 in Liverpool, United Kingdom, with the song "Like an Animal" performed by Piqued Jacks. The Sammarinese broadcaster San Marino RTV (SMRTV) organised the national final concept entitled Una voce per San Marino ("A voice for San Marino") to decide their representative. The event consisted of over 1,000 emerging and 32 established artists competing over a five-month period from October 2022 through February 2023 for the opportunity to represent the nation at the contest. The winning entry "Like an Animal" was written by Andrea Lazzeretti, Francesco Bini, Marco Sgaramella, and Tommaso Oliveri.

Promotion of the entry consisted of the release of a music video as well as a tour of a selection of nations participating in the contest, including England, Israel, Poland, Spain, and the Netherlands. San Marino was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the contest, which took place on 11 May 2023. Performing during the show at position 12 in the running order, "Like an Animal" did not qualify to compete in the final. It placed last out of the 16 participating countries in its semi-final, with no points awarded to the nation for the first time in its Eurovision history.
