The Rise of Tamara Živković
Born and raised in Montenegro, Tamara first picked up the flute at a young age. Her passion for music was evident as she held her first concert when she was only 14.

Montenegro’s Eurovision History
Montenegro has a rich yet sporadic history at the Eurovision Song Contest. The country’s journey began back in 1983 when it was still part of Yugoslavia. The Montenegrin representatives placed 4th in 1983 and 18th in 1984. Later, in 2005, they competed as Serbia and Montenegro, achieving a commendable 7th place with the song “Zauvijek moja” by No Name.
After a hiatus, Montenegro returned to Eurovision in 2025 with Nina Žižić, marking a significant comeback after 12 years. Unfortunately, despite their efforts, the nation finished last in the semi-final, garnering only 12 points. This setback did not overshadow Montenegro’s ambition, and the upcoming participation in Eurovision 2026 brings renewed hope.
