Albania is one of the countries that hold their national selection in December. Festivali i Këngës will be held this year on 25th, 26th and 27th of December! What changes this year is that the national broadcaster RTSH has decided to present the songs before the live shows! A small part of the songs have already been presented on the Albanian radio this morning.
However, all of them will be presented on Radio Tirana today at 16:00 CET. You can listen to the songs by following this link.
As mentioned above, Festivali i Këngës consists of two semi-finals held on 25th and 26th of December and the final held on 27th of December. The hosts of the show will be Pandi Laço, Gresa Pallaska and Blerta Tafani.
