Duo hosts

Reigning LSC champion Tali will perform as an interval act singing her new single Dear Parents in addition to her Eurovision 2024 entry Fighter. RTL have also announced that the trophy for this year’s contest was designed by acclaimed Luxembourgish glassblower Pascale Seil; who won a design contest for the trophy.
The 2025 edition of the contest is set to take place on the 25th of January from the Rockhal arena in Esch. Seven acts are battling out for the chance to compete in Basel.
What is LSC?
The Luxembourg Song Contest debuted in 2024 with the country’s return to Eurovision. In 2024, the show featured eight artists and took place on one night. To determine the winner, there were two rounds of voting. The first round used a 50/50 combination of a jury and televote to determine the three superfinalists. The second round of voting followed the same format, though just containing the three super finalists.
Luxembourg’s Eurovision Journey
Luxembourg first made its debut in the first edition of the Contest in 1956, with their first entries being “Ne crois pas” and “Les Amants de minuit”, both performed by Michèle Arnaud. Since the first Contest, Luxembourg has competed a total of 38 times. Their best result was finishing in 1st place five times – in 1961, 1965, 1972, 1973 and 1983 respectively.
Luxembourg returned to the contest for the first time in 31 years in 2024. Tali represented Luxembourg in Malmö, with the song “Fighter” bringing Luxembourg their first semifinal qualification–since they last participated before the semifinal system even existed! In the Grand Final, “Fighter” received 103 points: 83 from the national juries, and 20 from the televoters.
