As we informed a few days ago, the Maltese song at next year’s Eurovision Song Contest will be solely decide by the televoting for the first time ever and every Maltese phone number will be only able to vote once from the same line.

During the press and participants meeting, it was also drawn who will be performing first and last in the festival: Klinsmann with “Laserlight” will be opening the show whilst Claudia Faniello will be last with “Breathlessly”.

Bundy stated they want the artists to be concentrated on their voices and the song they are singing, which is what really matters, whilst they must leave everything else behind. Bundy added that all 16 singers, as they all have 16 winning entries of the Maltese contest, will be treated equally. So therefore “a special schedule has been created to promoted every of them in the very same way”.

The production of the contest will be in charge of John Bundy, Doreen Cortis, Gordon Bonello and also Charles Dalli, they all were involved at this year’s Junior Eurovision Song Contest.

Stay tuned for further details on this year’s MESC!
