The United Kingdom‘s entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2025, in Basel, Switzerland, will be announced in March.

The UK’s national broadcaster, BBC, issued an official announcement regarding the selection of the country’s participation in the upcoming Eurovision 2025. The process of selecting the artist and song that will represent the United Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 is an international selection process in collaboration with the BBC and BBC Studios.

Specifically, the BBC is working with a leading figure in the British music industry. Together, they are working with British record labels, publishers, songwriters, BBC Music and BBC Introducing to choose the artist and song.

The artist and song will be published in March, ahead of the European Broadcasting Union deadline.

Last year, the United Kingdom was represented at Eurovision 2024 by the well-known artist Olly Alexander with the song “Dizzy.” However, he was limited to the 18th place of the scoreboard in the grand final with 46 points, while it is worth noting that once again the country received 0 points from the television audience.

On a recent Instagram story Georgian pop singer, Nini Iris, revealed she has submitted a new song to the Georgian public broadcaster, GPB, in order to hopefully represent her home country at the 69th Eurovision Song Contest in Basel.

“Due to the great request of the Georgian people and also my desire to be a representative of Georgia at Eurovision, I wrote a song and sent it to the Georgian Committee of ESC! Waiting for a response! I love you!”

GPB has not formally announced its selection method for the Eurovision Song Contest 2025. The broadcaster has internally selected its representative for Eurovision since 2022, having used Georgian Idol in 2018 and 2019.

Nini Iris is a Georgian-born pop singer, who moved to New York to pursue her music career. The singer grew in popularity after competing in the 2023 edition of  ‘The Voice USA’, where she was eliminated on the Semi Final.

With rehearsals at the Christmas Theatre officially underway and just three days left until the Ethnikos Telikos, the five countries that will form the international jury for the big night have been revealed.

The current favorite to win, according to the betting odds, will fill the vacant spot and join France, Italy, the United Kingdom and Norway in evaluating the 12 competing songs.

It’s worth noting that the international jury determines 25% of the results, as does the domestic jury, while the remaining 50% comes from the public vote.

/0 Comments/in , /by

The hosts for the Semi-Final Allocation Draw of the 69th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest have been revealed. According to the Swiss newspaper Blick, SRF presenter Jennifer Bosshard and Jan van Ditzhuijzen will host the ceremony, set to be broadcast live at 12:30 CET on January 28.

The draw officially marks the start of Basel’s time as the host city for the Eurovision Song Contest. Traditionally, the keys of the previous host city, in this case, Malmö (Sweden), are handed over to the new host. Jennifer Bosshard hinted that this year’s handover will have a unique twist:

It will be a little different this year. But I can’t reveal more than that.

The event is being produced by students from the “Multimedia Production” department of the Graubünden University of Applied Sciences.

The draw will determine which Semi-Final each participating country (excluding the Big Five and host country Switzerland) will perform in. Additionally, it will decide the Semi-Final in which the Big Five (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom) and Switzerland will broadcast their performances and cast their votes.
