Malta starts preparations for Eurovision 2024

The Eurovision Song Contest 2023 has not yet started and some countries are already preparing themselves for next year’s edition of Eurovision.

That is the case with Malta.  Maltese broadcaster PBS announced the start of their plans to select their 2024 representative via a songwriting camp.

MESC Music Exchange Camp will take place from June 12 to June 15 next year.  The aim of this camp is to compose the song that will end up representing Malta at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.  During the songwriting camp Maltese artists could work together with international songwriters to create potential songs for Eurovision 2024.

The end result of the songwriting camp will be 18 songs created through to the demo.  Following this stage, artists will have the creative freedom to develop the songs for MESC 2024.

MESC Music Exchange Camp will invite 18 artists to participate.  The public will also get access to lectures.

The Busker are representing Malta at the Eurovision Song Contest 2023.  They will perform the song Dance (Our Own Party) during the first half of the First Semi-Final.
