Austria: The selection process for Eurovision 2024 begins! | Conchita Wurst among interested artists?

The search for the next representative for Eurovision 2024 has officially begun for Austria, with a former winner of the contest reacting to the call for artists!

Austria’s selection process has begun for Eurovision 2024, with experts looking for artists to potentially represent the country in Sweden. Peter Schreiber, working with ORF in the search for a representative, posted on his instagram a few days ago, aiming to encourage artists to participate in the selection.

Among those who responded to Peter Schreiber’s invitation was Conchita Wurst, winner of the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 in Copenhagen, Denmark. The singer reacted to the post and even commented that she will send a message to Peter Schreiber. However, it is still too early to know whether Conchita is really interested in returning to the contest.
