Portugal was represented by Sabrina in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 with the song "Dança comigo".

Before Eurovision

Festival da Canção 2007

Portugal selected their entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 through the 2007 edition of "Festival da Canção". Composers were contacted to write one song each, although the identities of the performers of the songs were to be decided by the composers.[1]

The final was held on 10 March 2007 at Pavilhão Atlantico in Lisbon, hosted by Isabel Angelino and Jorge Gabriel. This edition had 100% televoting instead of the previous year's 50%-50% mix with a jury. The winner was Sabrina with the song "Dança comigo".
