The final of Greece’s selection this year is expected to take place in the Christmas Theatre in Athens, on the 30th of January.

Greek media reported that the 187 entries submitted to ERT have been narrowed down to 12 songs that will compete in this month’s selection; with 3 extra songs in reserve in the event of an act’s withdrawal or disqualification. The show will be hosted by former Eurovision participants Helena Paparizou and Sakis Rouvas.
Greece’s Eurovision Journey
In 1974, Greece made its debut to the Eurovision Song Contest with “Krasi, thalassa ke t’agori mou” which placed 11th. Since then they have participated on 44 occasions (41 of which made the Grand Final), and have won once, in 2005.
Greece’s most recent Eurovision participation saw them being represented by Marina Satti with the song “Zari”.
