The Tour Music Fest returns to the Republic of San Marino

The 2025 European Finals will take place from 22 to 30 November

The Tour Music Fest – The European Music Contest returns to San Marino for the 2025 European Finals, scheduled for November 22–30. Over 650 artists and bands will be selected from 20,000 applications from 13 European countries. The Grand Final will take place on the evening of November 30 at 6:00 pm in the Sala Little Tony.
The initiative is supported by the Ministry of Tourism in collaboration with the Tourism Office of the Republic of San Marino.
For nine days, San Marino's theaters, squares, and halls will be transformed into the European capital of emerging music, with a program spread across San Marino's main cultural venues: from the Teatro Titano to the Little Tony Auditorium in Serravalle, and the Congress Center of the Grand Hotel San Marino. "The Music of the Future" is the underlying theme of the nine-day program, the common thread connecting a wide array of concerts, master classes, and performances. Founded in Italy in 2007 to foster cultural exchange between emerging Italian and European artists, the Tour Music Fest is the first global festival with a new competition concept. The planned activities are designed to offer all participants a valuable, educational, and fun experience, fostering a spirit of artistic and musical growth, and adding cultural value to the music of the future. The Festival, in its San Marino leg, features 60 free events, 22 masterclasses, and over 600 performances over nine days. It will feature the likes of Beppe Vessicchio, an icon of Italian conducting, Kara Dio Guardi (former American Idol judge), rapper Ensi, internationally renowned vocal coach and backing vocalist Paola Folli, DJ Mazai, a leading figure on the electronic scene, San Marino singer Monica Hill, and many high-profile experts in Italian and international music. Twelve-year-old Martina Cervellin, winner of the 2024 TMF and selected to represent San Marino at Junior Eurovision 2025, will be a guest. The European Final of this major music contest, which has spawned artists such as Mahmood and Ermal Metal, will take place on November 30th at 6:00 PM in the Sala Little Tony. More than 20 singers, rappers, musicians, and DJs, selected from thousands of submissions from across Italy and Europe, will take to the stage to fulfill their dreams and win €10,000 and a concert tour. From December 12th to 14th, the "Christmas Music Camp" will take place at the Grand Hotel in San Marino, offering three days of high-quality training aimed at creating a Christmas hit. 

Filippo Francini - Director of the Department of the Secretariat of State for Tourism:
"The event returns to the Republic of San Marino for the fourth time, a resounding success from the very first edition. This competition takes on a European dimension and carries our name worldwide. 650 artists from 80 countries, 600 performances over nine days, and a program spanning San Marino's main cultural venues. A top-quality initiative, in which the Secretary of State for Tourism, Federico Pedini Amati, has believed from the very beginning."

Gianluca Musso - Founder and Director of the Tour Music Fest:
"The Tour Music Fest is a meeting point between the new artistic generations and the professional music world. In San Marino, the sounds of the future are discovered and the careers of tomorrow are built."

Founded in Italy in 2007, Tour Music Fest is the first global festival with a new concept in competition. Activities are focused on offering all participants a valuable, educational, and fun experience, as well as a great opportunity to connect with artists and industry professionals and win great prizes.
