Finland participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 in Liverpool, United Kingdom, with the song "Cha Cha Cha" performed by Käärijä. The Finnish broadcaster Yleisradio (Yle) organised the national final Uuden Musiikin Kilpailu2023 in order to select the Finnish entry for the contest. Seven entries were selected to compete in the national final on 25 February 2023, where the combination of votes from seven international jury groups and votes from the public selected the winner.
Finland was drawn to compete in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 9 May 2023. Performing as the closing entry during the show in position 15, "Cha Cha Cha" was announced among the top 10 entries of the first semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final on 14 May. It was later revealed that Finland placed first out of the 15 participating countries in the semi-final with 177 points. In the final, Finland performed in position 13 and placed second out of the 26 participating countries, scoring 526 points.
