Kvalifikacija za Millstreet was the preselection for the Eurovision Song Contest 1993 in Millstreet, the first ever type of preselecting countries for the final. Seven Central European countries took part, none of which had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest before. Three qualified for the main contest. It was held on 3 April 1993 at the RTV SLO Broadcasting Centre in Ljubljana, Slovenia hosted by Tajda Lekše.
After the seven competing songs were presented and the juries voted, each artist sang one of their own songs. This did not count towards the vote.
From the seven competing countries, the former Yugoslav nations of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Slovenia qualified for Eurovision 1993, which was held on 15 May 1993 in Millstreet, Ireland. Because of the new relegation system that had been introduced to Eurovision, all four non-qualifying countries would be eligible to take part in the 1994 contest (3 of which landed in the relegation zone).
Estonia, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia all failed to qualify. However, all 4 would debut the following year along with Poland, Russia and Lithuania.
