Eurosong 2023

A total of 14 songs were selected for Eurosng 2023 after selection by the relevant VRT jury, with two songs belonging to each artist. Then the artists themselves were asked to choose one of the two to compete in the national final.

• The outcome of tonight’s final will be decided by a combination of public voting and a panel of judges. The weight of the vote of both is 50%.
• 1560 points will be shared among the seven artists, with 780 going to the audience and 780 to the panel respectively.
• The 780 jury points will be determined by fifteen members selected by the Belgian state broadcaster. Each member will give 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5 and 4 points to each of the seven songs.
• Regarding the public vote, which also counts for 780 votes, if a song gets 20% of the votes, that means it will receive 156 points in the final score.
• In case of a tie, the jury’s vote prevails. If there is a tie in this criterion as well, then the song with the most 12 or 10 points prevails.

The Eurosong 2023 final will take place tonight at 20:20 CET and will last just under two hours. You can watch it through the official website of VRT, by clicking HERE.
