A Return to Tradition

This marks the first time in five years that Armenia will select its Eurovision representative and song through national selections. This method was previously used to select the Armenian entries in 2017, 2018, and 2020. After withdrawing from the competition in 2021 and returning in 2022, the Armenian representative and song were chosen internally.

Armenia was the last participating country to confirm its participation in Eurovision 2025, and with this confirmation, it also announced the return of “Depi Evratesil” as the Armenian selection method for the upcoming contest in Basel. The return of the Armenian national selection is part of a broader trend of countries reverting to national pre-selections, including Greece, Poland, and Slovenia.
