San Marino RTV, the San Marinese national broadcaster, have confirmed they will be bidding to host the 2026 Junior Eurovision Song Contest.

FOLLOWING their initial announcement back in September, San Marino RTV have confirmed they will bid to host the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2026. During a press conference this afternoon, San Marino RTV’s Director General, Roberto Sergio, had the following to say:

“It was a thrilling success to see San Marino in the ‘left-hand side’ of the rankings for the first time with a prestigious ninth place. Martina was the third most voted for by the public, a result that encourages us to officially apply to host the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2026.”
