Seven songs have secured their place in Sunday’s grand final of Sing for Greece, the national selection for Eurovision 2026.
The first semi-final of Sing for Greece wrapped up late on Tuesday night, delivering seven qualifiers who will now compete for the coveted chance to represent Greece at the 70th Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna.
With presenters Betty Maggira, Giorgos Kapoutzidis, and Konstantinos Vrana sharing the stage, the broadcast ran for over two hours and featured 14 competing entries. Despite a crowded stage and long runtime, viewers ultimately decided which artists would advance, with results determined exclusively by public voting.

These seven acts will now face fresh competition from the second semi-final, as the race to secure Greece’s Eurovision ticket heats up.
