The 68th Eurovision Song Contest will take place in Malmo, Sweden on May 7th, 9th, and 11th, and Marina Satti will perform third in the second semi-final, which will be held on May 9th.
In the first semi-final on Tuesday, May 7th, fifteen countries will participate in the following order: Ukraine, Cyprus, Poland, Serbia, Lithuania, Croatia , Ireland, Slovenia, Iceland, Finland, Portugal, Luxembourg, Australia, Azerbaijan, and Moldova.
In the first semi-final, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and Germany will all appear and vote.

During the 1990s, Greece finished in the top-ten spot twice at the Eurovision Song Contest with Cleopatra and Katy Garbi reaching fifth and ninth place in 1992 and 1993, respectively. The country competed every year until 1999, when it was relegated from participation. This was because Greece's five-year points average had fallen below the limit for participation after Thalassa's 20th-place finish in 1998.
The following year, ERT announced it would not return for the Eurovision Song Contest 2000 despite its eligibility due to financial reasons.
