Pink Music Festival 2014 was the first edition of the Pink Music Festival contest organised by Serbian broadcaster RTV Pink and featuring artists from City Records. It was held in the RTV Pink studio in Šimanovci on the outskirts of Belgrade on 28 and 29 April 2014 and broadcast live on RTV Pink. All songs were mimed, which was much-criticised by the Serbian press.
Preparation
The contest was announced on 7 March 2014, and artists had a one-month window to submit songs before the deadline of 12pm on 6 April 2014. From the 700–800 songs submitted, the final lineup of 26 songs was chosen by a four-member selection committee comprising Željko Mitrović (director and editor-in-chief of RTV Pink), Milica Mitrović (RTV Pink programming executive), Darko Popović (RTV Pink PR manager) and Bane Stojanović (head of City Records). The list of entries was announced on 10 April, and the running order for the semi-final was drawn live on Pink TV on 12 April. Performances of the entries were filmed in the RTV Pink studio and published on YouTube on 16 April.
Format
The contest was split over 2 nights, with the semi-final being held on 28 April 2014 and the final on 29 April. The results of the semi-final were decided entirely by SMS voting, with the 10 songs that received the fewest votes being eliminated. Rather than a combined jury-televote system as in Eurovision since 2010, the final featured a separate Public Award (for the song with the most SMS votes) and Jury Award (for the song ranked highest by the jury), as well as an Artists' Award voted for by the competing singers, a Sponsors' Award chosen by the event's sponsors, and a YouTube Award for the song with the most YouTube views.

The semi-final was held on 28 April. Viewers could vote by SMS from the start of the show, and the 16 qualifiers to the final were decided entirely by the public vote.
