Your Face Sounds Familiar is a Greek reality show airing on ANT1.

The first season ran from April 14, 2013 to June 30, 2013 and consisted of twelve live shows where ten celebrity contestants impersonated various Greek and foreign singers. The contestants are evaluated by the show's judges, the audience and the other contestants. The contestant who gathers the highest score in each live (winner of the night), is able to donate the money that is collected from the audience's voting to a charity of their choice. In Cyprus, the money were given to "Mana" (Mother) organization every week.

During the live shows, no one is eliminated at the end of the night. At the end of the semifinal, the four couples with the highest cumulative scores from all eleven lives are the ones who can compete at the final for the first place. The four finalists are scored only by the audience in the final and the contestant who receives the most votes is the winner of the show. Audience is able to vote during the whole week for the winner.

The host of the show was Maria Bekatorou and the four judges were Alexandros Rigas, Gerasimos Gennatas, Katerina Gagaki and Bessy Malfa.Dafni Bokota was a guest judge at the fifth live.
