Stefan Raab Returns to Lead Germany's Eurovision 2025 Selection

Germany launches 'ESC 2025,' a new casting show helmed by Stefan Raab, to select its Eurovision entry after years of poor results.

Germany's Eurovision 2025 entry will be chosen through 'Chefsache ESC 2025,' a casting show created by Stefan Raab in collaboration with RTL and ARD.
The competition features 24 acts selected from over 3,200 applicants, showcasing a diverse range of musical styles and backgrounds.
The selection process includes four shows, with the first airing on February 14 and the final on March 1, where the audience will vote for the winner.
A jury led by Stefan Raab, alongside Yvonne Catterfeld and Elton, will decide which acts progress through the initial rounds.
Raab, known for his successful Eurovision contributions including Lena's 2010 victory, aims to improve Germany's standings after years of disappointing results.
