/0 Comments/in , , /by

No matter if Belgium “caught up” faster with the artist announcement for Eurovision 2024, the Cypriot Broadcaster is almost ready for the official announcement of the artist that will represent the country in next year’s contest. The announcement will take place next week and we will get to know the second artist that will fly to Malmö, barring anything unforeseen.

As you first read through EurovisionFun, RIK, after the inglorious end of Fame Story as a selection method for the representative of Cyprus in the contest, the broadcaster directly put forward the backup plan they had already planned. Thus, both the artist and the song will be selected by an internal selection in which Cyprus will participate in the 68th Eurovision Song Contest.

Everything is ready, even some pending procedures have been resolved and so it’s a matter of time for the official announcement of RIK. Although, the announcement will not only include the artist reveal but we do not want to spoil anything further and ruin the suprise of the Cypriot delegation, where they hope for a good result, even higher than the last attempt with Andrew Lambrou who ended up in the 12th place with the song “Break A Broken Heart”.

However, the preperation of the Cypriot delegation for Malmö has been already intesive, having started their planning even for the stage presence.

A few more days of patience and soon all our questions will be answered!

EXCLUSIVE: Cyprus will internally select its entry for Eurovision 2024 | The artist announcement soon to be made!

/1 Comment/in , , , /by

As the “Fame Story” selection format is opted out, Cyprus will choose its entry for Eurovision 2024 internally and we are really close to the announcement of the artist that will fly the Cypriot flag to Malmö next year.

Internal selection is the final solution for Cyprus

Regardless the initial idea of hosting a national final in January live from Nicosia, with 3 to 5 competing participants, the Cypriot National television decided to use the method of internal selection in order to select its next Eurovision act. Cyprus has been choosing its Eurovision acts internally since 2016 and RIK’s choice is proven to have an effect. Since 2016, Cyprus has managed to qualify to the Grand Final every time, except in one occasion, in 2022.

RIK’s team, considering that they have a strong song in their hands, but also an artist who can impress on the stage of the competition and wanting to defuse the tension between RIK and ERT regarding Fame Story, accelerated all the internal procedures needed for the internal selection.

Fame Story goes to OMEGA

It is indicative that Fame Story, no longer associated with the Eurovision contest and the Cypriot representation in it, will not even be broadcast on RIK. Based on what it was announced to the media in the last few hours, the musical talent show will be broadcast by OMEGA TV, as is the case with all STAR programs in Cyprus.

The official announcement in the coming days

Barring the unexpected, Cyprus will be the first country to announce its artist for Eurovision 2024.

It is just a matter of time till the official announcements are made from RIK, naming the artist who will succeed Andrew Lambrou on the stage of the competition.

We are sure the this announcement will cause a sensation among Eurovision fans. We will soon find out!
