The Q2-2023 contest was held in Melbourne. This is the first time when the contest has been held away from Europe, even though a European country has won the contest. | |||

After the victory of the representative of [[San Marino]] in the previous competition [[Worldvision Q1-2023|Q1-2023]], the question arose of the possibility of holding the competition in San Marino. During the discussions, it was announced that due to the lack of a suitable venue for the song contest, it was decided to move the competition to [[Australia]] (as the second place winner), but with the right to co-organize San Marino. | After the victory of the representative of [[San Marino]] in the previous competition [[Worldvision Q1-2023|Q1-2023]], the question arose of the possibility of holding the competition in San Marino.
