Pesma za Evroviziju

Pesma za Evroviziju (Serbian Cyrillic: Песма за Евровизију, lit. 'A Song for Eurovision') is a Serbian song contest organized by Radio Television of Serbia (RTS) in collaboration with SkyMusic. Since its inception in 2022, it has been used to select the Serbian entry for the Eurovision Song Contest.
In October 2021, it was announced that Beovizija would no longer be used to select the Serbian entry for the Eurovision Song Contest, as the company that owns the rights to the Beovizija brand, Megaton, decided not to renew its contract with RTS. In place of Beovizija, a new selection was planned out under the working title RTS Takmičenje za Pesmu Evrovizije (transl. RTS contest for the Eurovision Song Contest). The final title was later revealed to be Pesma za Evroviziju (transl. A Song for Eurovision).
The general slogan is based on the beginning letters of the words "song", "Eurovision" and "Serbia" in Cyrillic, with the name of the contest written next to it.
The contest consists of two semi-finals and a final. In each show, the jury and the televoting award 12, 10 and 8–1 points to their 10 favourite songs. In the semi-finals, around half of the songs which received the most points advance to the final. In the final, the song with the most points is declared the winner. In case of a tie, the song that received more points from the televoting is deemed to have finished higher. In case of a tie in the jury votes, the song that received more 12 points is deemed to have finished higher. If the tie is not broken, the process is repeated with the other points from highest to lowest until the draw is resolved. In case the draw cannot be resolved this way, the order in which the president of the jury ranked the songs will be used to determine the ranking. In case the president of the jury had not voted for multiple songs in the draw, they have to decide the ranking in written form as soon as the combined points from all jurors are known. In case multiple songs receive the same amount of televotes, the amount of televotes at the 10-minute mark of the televoting determines their ranking. If the tie is still not broken, the process is repeated with the televotes at the 5-minute mark. In the event that the televoting results cannot be obtained, only the jury determines the ranking of the contestants.
All participants must be at least 16 years old on 1 May of the year in which Pesma za Evroviziju is held. All singers must be citizens of Serbia, while there are no nationality limitations as to who can enter as a songwriter. At most, six people are allowed to be a part of a single performance.
The competing entries must not have been released partially or in full before 1 September of the previous year (for example, Pesma za Evroviziju '25 songs must not have been released before 1 September 2024). The songs can be three minutes long at most. In 2022 and 2023, the rules of the contest stated that the lyrics had to be written in one of the official languages of Serbia, although this rule wasn't strictly enforced. For the 2024 contest, the rule was amended, stating that songs have to contain at least 51% of lyrics in one of the official languages of Serbia.
Dragana Kosjerina Perduv is the presenter of the programme each year with another guest presenter that changed yearly until 2025, while the green room hosts were Kristina Radenković and Stefan Popović.
In 2025, Kristina Radenković has joined Dragana Kosjerina Perduv as presenter, while Stefan Popović is green room host. It was announced that Slaven Došlo will be also the presenter of the PZE25, and Đorđe Živadinović will be the green room host, but Došlo and Živadinović withdrew from the hosting and joined the boycott of RTS initiated by students of the University of Arts in Belgrade.
