With the Nagorno-Karabakh war ending on 10 November, Armenia's head of delegation David Tserunyan wrote on Instagram that the country would "come back stronger than ever". Armenia again selected Maléna to represent the country with "Qami Qami", and ultimately won the contest with 224 points. In the 2022 contest, Nare represented the country with her song "Dance!". The country ended in 2nd place out of 16 countries, achieving 180 points.

All submissions required participants to enter covers of two songs, with applications open until 23 July 2023. All entrants were to be citizens of the Republic of Armenia and could be a soloist, duet or part of a group of up to six members. Following two rounds of auditions, an expert jury panel appointed by AMPTV determined the eventual representative for the country.
