Many beloved Eurovision artists took the stage and we’ll bring you all the stunning performances below.

Tamta & Mikolas Josef

Next, to mostly Greek artists, there was one big surprise when Tamta brought out this year’s Czech representative Mikolas Josef.  After Tamta performed her summer hit Arhes kalokeriou (Early summer), Mikolas took over the stage with his hit Lie To Me and Tamta joined him to make his Eurovision song a duet. They left us in shock! Watch their amazing performance below:

Eleni Foureira

What would be a Greek music award show without this year’s runner-up Eleni Foureira? She performed her new single Caramela, which was officially released the next day by her record label. Moreover, she also performed a special remix of her Eurovision entry to close the show.

Helena Paparizou

Our 2005 Eurovision winner Helena Paparizou also took the stage in Athens to perform the lead single from her latest album Ouranio toxo (Rainbow) in a special remix.

She also performed on stage with the boyband MELISSES, who took part in the 2010 national final in Greece. They performed a special version of their 2013 summer hit Ola moiazoun kalokeri.
