Montenegro: Back with a new national final in 2025?
Following a call by the national broadcaster, RTCG, for a public debate to shape its broadcasting programme for 2024, the authorities have published an official report responding to the suggestions/ questions sent to them.
Of course, there were also questions about the Eurovision Song Contest!
More specifically, someone asked the following question:
“Are there any plans to organise a music festival produced by the RTCG? From time to time there have been announcements about a winter festival instead of Montevizija, about Montefon and other festivals…
Will RTCG participate in the Eurovision Song Contest and will there be a national final?”
The RTCG’s response was as follows:
“The Montenegrin TV is planning to organise a music festival promoting new songs by local artists and composers and at which (depending on the budget for 2025) the country’s representative for the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 will be selected!”
It is also stated that although in 2023 RTCG did not broadcast Eurovision, in 2024 it intends to broadcast both Eurovision and Eurovision Junior.
Montenegro’s last participation in the contest was in 2022 with Vladana and the song “Breathe” which finished in the 17th place of the semi-final with just 33 points.
Would you like to see Montenegro return? Do you think this will happen in 2025? Let us know in the comments!
