This year's Romanian representatives Hotel FM will visit Malta as part of their promotional campaign towards the next Eurovision Song Contest to be held in Düsseldorf, Germany. The group received an invitation by the Maltese broadcaster to appear in the Maltese national final.

Shortly after their victory in the Romanian selection, Hotel FM will kick-off with their promo tour. The group is expected to meet the local press in Malta and perform their song Change in the national final that will take place next February. Hotel FM might also include Italy as part of their promotion as the country will also participate in this year’s Eurovision Song Contest.

Hotel FM that recently gave an exclusive interview to esctoday.com is trying to present a fresh European and a radio friendly sound. The Eurovision hopefuls are aiming to reach a bigger audience by promoting their song across Europe. Hotel FM’s appearance in the Maltese national final will keep a tradition alive i.e. featuring a Eurovision performance. Last year Sirusho was one of the special guests in the national selection.

This is not the first time that a Romanian Eurovision hopeful included the Mediterranean island as part of the promotional campaign. Todomondo were the last Romanian representatives that promoted their song in Malta towards the Eurovision Song Contest.
