The Grand Prix of music, officially the Phoenixian Song Festival (Phoexian: Grand Festival della musica), is the most popular Phoenixian song contest and awards ceremony, organised annually by Phoenixian Public broadcast (PPB) in the city of Afragola, Belporto.

In the early 2000s, the competition was the most popular television programm in Phoenixia; it is also broadcast on radio and the Internet.

The songs selected in the competition are in Packilvanian, and the three most voted songs are awarded. Other special awards are also given, including the Critics' Award.

The Grand Prix of Music has often been used as a method for choosing the Phoenixian entry for the Urthvision Song Festival. It has launched the careers of some of Phoenixia's most successful musical acts, including Love and Peace, Robert Tens Nevermind, Chaos Blade and Ærthias .

Since 2021 the music magazine and record agency Matango has become an official sponsor of the Grand Prix of Music and the new Matango Trials section, where young artists and rookie bands make their debut.
