Longtime Eurovision commentator and spokesperson for Albania, Andri Xhahu, will once again provide commentary for the Eurovision Song Contest 2025. The news was confirmed via an Instagram post, marking his 13th consecutive year in the role.

Albanian viewers will be able to hear Andri Xhahu‘s familiar voice on RTSH 1HD, RTSH Radio Tirana 1 and RTSH Muzikë during the live broadcasts of the three Eurovision shows.

He first joined the Albanian Eurovision delegation in 2012, and since then has become a recognisable figure among Albanian fans, not only as a commentator but also as the nation’s spokesperson during the voting segment of the Grand Final.
