Azerbaijan: 154 entries submitted to İctimai Television for Eurovision 2025!
The national broadcaster of Azerbaijan, İctimai Television, announced back in August that it will be participating in Eurovision 2025. Then, for those who wanted to compete in Eurovision 2025, a submission window was opened.
154 entries were submitted to İctimai Television in total, as it was revealed after the submission window closed on September 15.

Notably, the broadcaster observed an increase in the number of Azerbaijani composers expressing interest; last year, their participation rate was 43%; this year, it is 49%, accounting for nearly half of the submissions.
What’s next?
Although, there is no further information about the progress of this selection stage, it seems that İTV will first review the entries submitted. Then and if last year’s procedure is followed, we can assume that the broadcaster will test its Eurovision candidates’ vocal and performance skills. The candidate who has the best song and can deliver it vocal and performance wise, will be the one to represent the nation to Basel.
Fahree and Ilkin Dovlatov, were İTV’s picks for Eurovision 2024 with their song “Özünlə apar”. Unfortunately, the duo did not manage to qualify for the Grand Final for the second consecutive year.
