İctimai TV has confirmed that Azerbaijan will participate in the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 in Switzerland.

Azerbaijan has confirmed its participation in the 69th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. İctimai TV has today opened its song submissions window as the country searches for its next entry for Eurovision.

• Songs must not have been released commercially before September 1, 2024

İctimai states in the rules that it reserves the rights to make changes or additions to the song that is chosen to represent Azerbaijan. The broadcaster has not detailed how the song will be chosen, since 2015 Azerbaijan has internally selected its song for the competition.

Fahree and Ilkin Dovlatov represented Azerbaijan at the Eurovision 2024 with “Özünlə apar”. They finished 14th out of 15 entries in Semi-Final One scoring a total of 11 points. This was the second year in a row Azerbaijan failed to qualify for the final.
