The Rehearsal

Unfortunately this year, accredited journalists don’t get the chance to watch the first and second rehearsals, so we only get the information and content that the organizers officially release to the public.

San Marino’s performance is still full of sequins and mood lighting! The group uses the LED wall as a sea with red and black graphics,and it’s clear they’re not leaving until they’ve left their heart and soul on that stage. The main singer has a huge stage presence and charisma which leads the whole performance is gritty and raw in the best possible way.
