San Marino in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest
Back in 2013 San Marino started its brief history in the Junior competition with Michele Perniola and ‘O-o-O Sole intorno a me’. A strong start for the minnow nation, placing 10th. After returning two more times with low table results of 14th and 15th, the broadcaster took a nine year break. In 2024, San Marino returned with Idols SM and their entry, ‘Come noi’. During the show in Madrid, Spain they achieved San Marino’s first ever last place despite also earning their highest points tally of 47.
Last year, San Marino earned their best ever Junior Eurovision result of 9th place and an impressive 125 points for Martina Crv and her entry, ‘Beyond The Stars‘.
