We’re getting to the busiest part of national selection season, so it’s totally understandable to lose track of who is selecting their acts and when. It’s another big week of song selections, but also the continuations of national selections, and there are even some kicking off! Here is a brief recap of the national selections happening tonight, a bit about their selection and where possible, links to where you can watch the shows!

Malta were quick on the case for their Eurovision 2018 selection, and from very early on we knew about their plans for the 2018 season. We saw the shortlist of 30 be reduced down to 16 lucky acts, and early this year, we finally got to hear the competing entries!
