Song contests in Malta have become a way for Maltese pop songs to reach a general audience since the early 1960s.

Although there are antecedents in the area of għana, and possibly other types of performing arts-related contests, it's very likely that these where also following the rise of the San Remo festival, which became a cultural high-point through transmissions on Italian television RAI. The influence of San Remo is also felt in a number of other ways: the style of songs, the methods of presentation, the television tie-ins, the on and off association with the Eurovision Song Contest, and most significantly in the use of the word festival to describe such contests.
