The lineup for this year’s OGAE Second Chance Contest has been decided. Each year, the OGAE clubs get to select a song from their country’s national final that did not make it to Eurovision to compete in the contest. Italy will host the event this year after Annalisa won last year’s contest with “Il mondo prima di te”. The OGAE Second Chance has been held every year since 1987 among the national branches of OGAE, the official Eurovision fan club.
24 songs will take part in this year’s contest. OGAE have released the running order of how the songs will be presented at the event set to be held later this summer. Typically there are no live performances by competing entries, but the fans will view the compilation of the national performances.
