Two countries have announced in recent days that they will offer online voting for the Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) 2025: Greece and Montenegro.

Greek broadcaster ERT announced on Wednesday that it will allow the public to vote online, while still keeping the traditional phone and SMS voting options.

Returning to the ESC after a three-year absence, Montenegro’s RTCG also confirmed it will offer online voting. Vladana Vučinić, head of delegation, explained that this aligns with modern European practices. Phone calls and SMS voting will remain available.
