Ukraine is set to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 in Malmö, Sweden. The Ukrainian national broadcaster, Public Broadcasting Company of Ukraine (Suspilne), is organising the national final Vidbir 2024 in order to select the Ukrainian entry for the 2024 contest.
Background
Prior to the 2024 contest, Ukraine has participated in the Eurovision Song Contest eighteen times since its first entry in 2003, winning it the following year with the song "Wild Dances" by Ruslana. The country won the contest for a second time in 2016 with "1944" by Jamala, and for a third time in 2022 with "Stefania" by Kalush Orchestra. Ukraine has been the runner-up in the contest on two occasions: in 2007 with "Dancing Lasha Tumbai" by Verka Serduchka and in 2008 with "Shady Lady" by Ani Lorak. Following the introduction of semi-finals for 2004, Ukraine is the only country that has managed to qualify to the final in every contest they have participated in thus far. Ukraine's least successful result was 24th place, which it achieved as host in 2017 with the song "Time" by O.Torvald. In 2023, Ukraine was represented by Tvorchi performing "Heart of Steel", which finished sixth in the final where the country was automatically qualified as the winner of the previous edition.[1]
The Ukrainian national broadcaster, Public Broadcasting Company of Ukraine (Suspilne), broadcasts the event within Ukraine and organises the selection process for the nation's entry. In the past, Suspilne alternated between both internal selections and national finals in order to select the Ukrainian entry. Between 2016 and 2020, and again since 2022, the broadcaster has set up national finals with several artists to choose the song and performer to compete at Eurovision for Ukraine, with both the public and a panel of jury members involved in the selection. On 7 July 2023, Suspilne confirmed its intention to take part in the 2024 contest.[2] A national final format was confirmed in late August as the selection method.[3]
Before Eurovision
Vidbir 2024
Vidbir 2024 is set to be the eighth edition of Vidbir, the competition that determines the Ukrainian entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.[3][4] It will be produced by 1+1 Media Group.[5][6]
Format
The selection of the competing entries for the national final took place over four stages. In the first stage, artists and songwriters could apply for the competition through an online submission form. For the second year in a row, Dmytro Shurov is the music producer of the event, who was in charge of reviewing the received submissions and select a longlist of 20 participants, announced on 9 November 2023.[3][4][7][8] In the second stage, longlisted artists – divided into two sets of ten – were assessed at two live auditions, with ten acts, announced on 17 November 2023, directly qualifying for the final.[4][9][10] The third stage consisted of a public online vote among the longlisted artists who did not pass the previous phase, determining the eleventh finalist, who was announced on 21 December 2023.[4][11] The eleven selected artists are set to take part in a final on 3 February 2024,[4][12] where the winner will be determined by a combination of jury and public votes.[13]
Competing entries
The submission period for interested artists was open between 30 August and 22 October 2023. Each candidate could submit as many songs as they wished.[4] At the closing of the application window, 389 entries had been received from 288 performers, mainly in English and Ukrainian.[7] The selected finalists (marked in bold the table below) include Mélovin, who represented Ukraine in the 2018 contest.[8][10][14]

The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) split up the competing countries into six different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot. On 30 January 2024, an allocation draw will be held, which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, and determined which half of the show they would perform in; the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) splits up the competing countries into different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot.[16]
