Today, the thirty songs that are in run for the Hungarian ticket for the forthcoming Eurovision Song Contest were uploaded to the Hungarian broadcaster’s (MTV) offical YouTube channel.

The selection will begin really soon, on 25 January, where 10 songs will battle in the first heat. The final of the Hungarian national selection (A Dal) is scheduled to 22 February, so in one and a half months we will know the Hungarian participant for the 2014 edition.

Just like last year, this year’s edition will feature six shows, and the selection will go on for five weeks.
