Switzerland has only just celebrated its victory at the Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) with Nemo's "The Code" and is already looking for the next successful song for next year's event: a total of 431 suggestions were received by the deadline.
For data protection reasons, Swiss Radio and Television (SRF) was unable to reveal to the Keystone-SDA news agency on Friday whether any well-known Swiss musicians were among the candidates.
SRF had called for tracks to be submitted for the Swiss contribution to ESC 2025 from August 8 to 22. During these two weeks, a total of 431 songs were received, as SRF announced on request. Its website states: "The upload phase is over, thank you for all the great songs."
These will now be presented to several expert and public juries. After a multi-stage selection process, it will then be announced at the beginning of 2025 who will represent Switzerland with which song at the home ESC.
Where the big event will take place should be announced next Friday: The decision on whether the next Eurovision Song Contest will be held in Basel or Geneva is expected on August 30.
