Greek Eurovision Final: 12 songs compete for the coveted representation in the 69th contest

The major music event is being broadcast live on ERT1, the Second Program, as well as internationally via ERT WORLD, ERTFLIX International, and the 'Voice of Greece

Newsroom January 30 10:10

A night full of music, dance, rhythm, and surprises is promised by the Greek final, through which the song that will represent Greece in the 69th Eurovision Song Contest will be chosen. The major music event started at 21:00 at the Christmas Theater and is being broadcast live on ERT1, the Second Program, as well as internationally via ERT WORLD, ERTFLIX International, and the ‘Voice of Greece.’ Additionally, the evening is available in Greek Sign Language via live streaming on ERT1.

The presentation will be led by two well-known Greek artists, Sakis Rouvas and Elena Paparizou, while the direction of the show is handled by Fokas Evagelinos. The two singers will open the evening accompanied by the ERT Contemporary Music Orchestra and members of the ERT Choir, performing three iconic songs: “Waterloo” by ABBA, “Hold Me Now” by Johnny Logan, and “Krasi, thalassa kai to agori mou”, with which Marinella first represented Greece in Eurovision 51 years ago. The two artists will return to the stage afterwards, performing beloved hits.
