ERT, the Greek broadcaster, will be holding the country's national final for the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest on Wednesday 27 February. The show will be hosted by Betty and Mathilde Maggira, two popular personas of Greek television.
Greece will follow the same format as last year: three artists- Chryspa, Kalomoira Saranti and Kostas Martakis- will fight it out on 27 February. The venue has not been finalised yet, but it could be Athinon Arena, same as last year due to the hall's large capacity. The winner will be again decided by a mixture of jury vote and televote.
The show will be hosted by Betty and Mathilde Maggira, who also hosted the Thessaloniki Festival with great success. Ever since then the Greek broadcaster was in discussion with the two sisters who have accepted ERT's proposal. It is expected that the show will feature international guests as well, namely other Eurovision Song Contest 2008 participants.
