Dutch broadcaster AVROSTROS shared a short video demonstrating the selection process for Eurovision 2024.
As has been reported before, more than 600 songs have been submitted to the selection process this time.
The Dutch committee has completed its work: The Dutch act for Eurovision 2024 has been internally selected!
AVROSTOS will reveal the identity of the Dutch representative on Monday, 11th of December 2023!
Traditionally, the Dutch entry is revealed at the beginning of March.
In the following video, you can hear about the way the selection process has been managed this year:
The selection process was composed of several stages.
The committee has gradually reduced the list of songs from 600 to fewer until they remained with 9 songs. Later on, each committee member had to choose its top 5.
The top 5 artists have performed their songs live before the jury.
The committee has finally made its choice.
Based on Dutch Radio 538, it seems like the top 3 artists to represent the country are
- Ilse DeLange (Eurovision 2014)
- Karsu (A Dutch singer of Turkish descent)
- Numidia (A Dutch singer of Moroccan descent)
Mia Nicolai and Dion Cooper represented The Netherlands at Eurovision 2023.
They performed the song “Burning Daylight“.
Unfortunately, they failed to qualify for the grand final:

For me the question is not in the first place who, but what. And of course I want someone with stage-personality and a good voice, but known or not known, is not the main thing for me. The most important thing for me is that the song sounds original and catches the viewer in less than a minute, unlike NL 2020 and 2023. Hitpotential and quality (no cliches) should go hand in hand . I’m looking forward to monday.
