Hosted by Fabrizio Biggio and Melissa Greta Marchetto, and following the voting exclusively by a five-member jury, MEGARA were crowned as the winners with their song “11:11“!

A total of seventeen acts, out of which eight were advanced from the semi-finals’ stage as “emerging” artists and the remaining nine were established artists invited by RTV San Marino, competed for the Sanmarinese representation in Malmö:

  1. Pago – “Il Protagonista”

  9. Loredana Bertè – “Pazza”
  10. KIDA – “Invincibile”
  11. BOOOM! – “Dance Like This”
  12. Jalisse – “Il Paradiso E’ Qui”
  13. Mate – “Big Mama”
  14. Masala e Foresta – “Paranoia”
  15. La Rua – “Governo del cuore“
  16. Dana Gillespie – The Last Polar Bear 
  17. MEGARA – “11:11”

Riccardo Cocciante was a guest on yesterday’s show and performed on multiple occasions between the participating acts.

The results

The winner was decided by a five member-jury, which consisted of:

  • Celso Valli (Head of the experts’ committee, composer and conductor)
  • Anna Bischi (Musician)
  • Clarissa Martinelli (Journalist)
  • John Vignola (Journalist)
  • Steve Lyon (Music Producer)

At first, the hosts announced the classification of yesterday’s show from place seventeen to place four.

 

Then, the top three was announced in random order, the artists were welcomed on stage and the final results were revealed.

  1. MEGARA
  2. Loredana Bertè
  3. La Rua

The winner

MEGARA won UVPSM 2024 and will therefore serve as the country’s representatives in the 68th Eurovision Song Contest that will take place in Malmö in May. San Marino is allocated to perform at the second half of the second semi-final on May 9.
