Chefsache ESC 2025
Chefsache ESC 2025 will feature 24 acts. The competition includes two heats, a semi-final, and a grand final. While RTL will broadcast the heats and the semi-final, the Grand Final will be aired on Das Erste.
Key dates for Chefsache ESC 2025 are as follows:
- Heat 1: February 14
- Heat 2: February 15
- Semi-Final: February 22
- Grand Final: March 1
In each heat, twelve acts will compete, seven of which will advance to the semi-final. A total of nine finalists will then compete in the Grand Final, where the winner will be chosen to represent Germany at Eurovision 2025 in Basel.
During the heats and semi-final, a professional jury, led by Eurovision veteran Stefan Raab, will evaluate the performances and decide which acts will qualify. However, the Grand Final will leave the decision entirely in the hands of the public, ensuring that Germany’s Eurovision representative reflects the nation’s choice.
Last year, Germany was represented by Isaak, whose song “Always on the Run” surpassed expectations, securing an impressive 13th place in the Grand Final.
