The deadline for submitting entries for Pesma za Evroviziju 2025 (PzE 2025), the national competition that will determine Serbia’s next entry in the 69th Eurovision Song Contest in Basel, Switzerland, ended on November 10.

A total of 222 entries were submitted for Pesma za Evroviziju 2025, and contest editor Olivera Kovačević and music editor Uroš Marković say the difficult part now is selecting the 28 entries that will compete in the semi-finals.

Olivera Kovačević and Uroš Marković were guests on the show “Jedan dobar dan” where they made relevant statements.

Uroš Marković stated:

“Pesma za Evroviziju is becoming more popular every year. Last year’s final was watched by 1,750,000 people on television and another 450,000 on YouTube. All in all, that’s more than two million people. This year, we are in negotiations with the Eurovision Song Contest to broadcast the final for the Serbian representative on their official channel.”

According to him, Pesma za Evroviziju gives the contestants a great chance for promotion, because it is covered by the media and is very popular.

In turn, Olivera Kovačević stated:

“The careers of many now famous performers started at PZE, and the fact that the competition is increasingly popular shows that we have found the path we need to follow and that we are making progress every year, both visually and in terms of content.”

She also reveals that there are very good applications for the upcoming competition and many famous performers, but she cannot name them because the selection committee will evaluate them in early December and then a list of those who have passed will be made.

“It is the best when you offer a variety of genres, from ethno, to rock and pop, to metal. It is the same at the ‘Eurovision’, every year they try to find a recipe. One year ‘Måneskin’ win, and the next year everyone plays something similar. This year Nemo won, probably next year some will try something in that vein”

The names that will compete in Pesma za Evroviziju will be revealed in mid-December.
