Georgia was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 with the song "Echo", written by Giorgi Kukhianidze, Beni Kadagidze, and Irina Khechanovi, and performed by Khechanovi herself under her stage name Iru. The Georgian participating broadcaster, the Georgian Public Broadcaster (GPB), selected its representative through the fifth season of The Voice Georgia, while the song "Echo" was internally selected and released on 16 March 2023.
Georgia was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 11 May 2023. Performing during the show in position 11, "Echo" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Georgia placed 12th out of the 16 participating countries in the semi-final with 33 points.
