The first win came in 1979 in Caracas with the song "Cuenta conmigo" sung by Daniel Riolobos [es], which turned into a hit.

Some years later, in 1988 they won the festival for second time with the song "Todavía eres mi mujer" sung by Guillermo Guido [es].

Three years later, in 1994 in Valencia, the country won for fourth and last time with "Canción despareja" by Claudia Carenzio.

Apart from their victories, Argentina achieved second place on another four occasions: in 1981 with "Súbete a mi nube" by Marianella, in 1985 with "Y tu, prohibida" by Marcelo Alejandro, in 1996 with "Cuanto te amo" by Guillermo Guido, and in 1998 with "Sin amor" by Alicia Vignola.

Argentina also achieved two third places in 1980 with "Dime adiós" by Luis Ordóñez and 1986 with "A ti no te ha dicho" by Hugo Marcel [es].
