All those artists aiming to represent the micro-state at the Eurovision stage in Malmö, will also have to get through the next phase of the competition, the castings’ stage.
Castings’ stage
As it was revealed at an earlier stage, starting from November 10, the “Academy and Casting” phase will commence.
In fact and as announced by RTV, the first stage of the casting’s phase will start on Friday 10th of November to Sunday 12th at the San Marino Outlet Experience.
What else to expect from UVPSM?
The 2024 edition will include both “emerging” and “big” artists, as in 2022.
- The applications for the “emerging artists” category have opened and will remain open until the 10th of January 2024. Those who are interested can register on the “Una Voce per San Marino” registration website. The “Academy and Casting” phase will finish ten days after the deadline, on January 20. The casting sessions can be held online for those not living near Italy. After this procedure, 80 artists will proceed to the semifinals.
- Regarding the “big artists” category, invitations will be sent by the Sanmarinese broadcaster.
In the Grand Final, 16 participants will compete, 8 from each category. Both “big” and “emerging” artists will be able to sing only one of their songs in the Grand Final.
There are no other specific rules regarding the submitted acts. There is a freedom of language, music style and territoriality.
The Grand Final of Una Voce per San Marino is scheduled for March 2 2024. It will be held in Teatro Nuovo di Dogana, the same venue that hosted the selection in 2022 and 2023. The winner will be decided by a qualified jury.
