Earlier today, Greek broadcaster ERT revealed that singer Marina Satti will represent Greece at Eurovision 2024!
The selection process for Eurovision 2024 was a different one, compared to the ones in recent years. In previous years, the Greek broadcaster opened a submission for any interested artists.
At this time, ERT has directly approached Marina to represent the country.
ERT will open a submission window for potential songs to be performed at Eurovision.
The submission window will be available between the 25th of October and the 1st of December 2023.
Interested composers and writers will send their submission via eurovision2024@ert.gr.
The selection process will be managed as a collaboration between ERT, Minos EMI and Golden Records.

In July 2021, ESCBEAT recommended Marina Satti as one of the artists on the Eurovision wishlist – “The Looker.”
