The participation of the United States in the OTI Festival began at the third OTI Festival in 1974. The participating broadcasters representing the country were the Spanish International Network (SIN) until 1986 and Univision since 1987, which were members of the Organización de Televisión Iberoamericana (OTI). Since their debut, they participated in all twenty-six editions. They won the festival two times: in 1986 and 2000; and they hosted the event three times: in 1983, 1989, and 1990.
