Georgia participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2013 with the song "Waterfall" written by Thomas G:son and Erik Bernholm.

The Georgian entry, "Waterfall", was presented to the public on 27 February 2013.

In the final, Georgia performed in position 25 and placed fifteenth out of the 26 participating countries, scoring 50 points.
