Following the conclusion of the second edition of Montesong, Tamara Živković will represent Montenegro at the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna with “Nova zora”.
Tamara Živković to represent Montenegro
The second edition of the contest saw a trio of hosts – Dajana Golubović Pejović, Jelena Božović, and Andrea Šekularac – overseeing the proceedings. Voting was done with an equally weighted jury and televote, which saw Tamara Živković win the former and Lara Baltić win the latter.
Ahead of this year’s show we had a chance to chat to Đurđa and Dolce Hera about their time in this year’s contest. Our team also gave their thoughts on the overall impression of the show.

Montenegro’s Eurovision Journey
Before Montenegro announced its return to the Eurovision Song Contest for 2025, they had a scattered appearance at the competition. There has been a Montenegrin presence at the Eurovision Song Contest as far back as 1983, when the nation was a part of Yugoslavia. Montenegrin entries went on to represent Yugoslavia in 1983 and 1984, placing 4th and 18th respectively. Similarly, the nation also sent an entry as part of Serbia and Montenegro in 2005, placing 7th with No Name’s “Zauvijek moja”.
Montenegro returned to the Contest in 2025 with Nina Žižić returning to the competition after 12 years. Singing “Dobrodošli”, Montenegro competed in the second semi-final. However, their return did not see a return to the final, with Montenegro finishing last in the semi-final with just 12 points.
