Greece's Ethnikós Telikós 2025 was held tonight with 12 artists fighting for the throne. The Greek representative at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 will be Klavdia with the song "Asteromáta"
Greece's Ethnikós Telikós 2025 has just concluded and we now know who will represent the country at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025.
The two hosts, Elena Paparizou and Sakis Rouvas, opened the show accompanied by the ERT Contemporary Music Orchestra and members of the ERT Choir and performed three iconic songs together: ABBA's "Waterloo," Johnny Logan's "Hold me now," and the first Eurovision song for Greece, Marinella's "Krassi, thalassa ke t' agori mou."
Last year's Greek contestant, Marina Satti, also performed her song "Zari," and this year's Cypriot artist Theo Evan performed "Fuego."
We saw 12 acts perform their songs tonight, all with hopes of going to Basel. After the performances, the voting started for the Greek public as well as both a Greek and an international jury.
After the votes were counted, Klavdia was declared winner of Ethnikós Telikós 2025 and will represent Greece at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 with the song "Asteromáta."

"Asteromáta" was written by Arcade and Klavdia Papadopoulou.
