The compete line-up for the OGAE Second Chance Contest 2025 has been revealed.
After winning the 2024 contest with Annalisa’s Sanremo hit “Sinceramente”, OGAE Italy are proud hosts of this years contest in Florence on September 13th. Annalisa achieved Italy’s fourth victory in the contest (after 2018, 2015 and 1997), and a second victory for herself, having previously won in 2018 with “Il mondo prima di te.” The only other artist to have won more than once is Swedish group Alcazar, who won in 2003 and 2005.
This years contest will see a total of 25 clubs participating, including Luxembourg, who will be participating for the very first time.
The OGAE Second Chance Contest has been held every year since 1987 among the OGAE clubs across Europe and the Rest of The World. The contest sees national final entries which didn’t make it to Eurovision in their respective year, competing for the chance to be crowned the winner of the Second Chance Contest.
All competing countries can vote through their respective OGAE clubs, as well as guest juries, who will be made up of members from countries who either didn’t have a national final, or who’s country did not participate in Eurovision 2025.
