Germany: Changes underway for Eurovision 2025?
According to the German website DWDL the production company that was involved for three years in the preparation of the selection process for Germany’s participation in the Eurovision Song Contest has withdrawn.
The DWDL website reports that Bildergarten is no longer the responsible production company behind Germany’s Eurovision entry selection process. Bildergarten had collaborated with the NDR channel in the production of the last three domestic televised contests for the selection of the German representative.
NDR commented that:
“We will announce shortly how the German act for the ESC 2025 will be selected.”
There has been speculation since last year that German broadcaster ARD is considering changes to the national approach to Eurovision. Another speculation was that the NDR channel would lose the rights to the competition which would be transfered to the MDR channel, however NDR retained them.
Additionally, last April, Stefan Raab proposed a new selection method that would revive Germany’s Eurovision hopes. Raab had proposed the contribution of all four major German broadcasters (ARD, ZDF, RTL Deutschland, ProSiebenSat.1) in organizing the national selection.
