The hosting country, Switzerland, was initially on ERT’s shortlist but ultimately withdrew, prompting the broadcaster to seek an immediate replacement.
In today’s episode of “Super Katerina”, journalist Giannis Poulopoulos revealed that Belgium has stepped in to replace Switzerland. The current favorite to win, according to the betting odds, will fill the vacant spot and join France, Italy, the United Kingdom and Norway in evaluating the 12 competing songs.
It’s worth noting that the international jury determines 25% of the results, as does the domestic jury, while the remaining 50% comes from the public vote.
Performance Order of the National Finalists
With three days to go, the 12 finalists are fine-tuning their performances to captivate audiences and win over the jury. The official performance order, announced last week, is as follows:
- RIKKI – “Elevator (Up and Down)”
