Ukraine at Eurovision 2022: So far
On February 12, Alina Pash won Vidbir 2022 with “Shadows Of Forgotten Ancestors”. However, her participation was suspended shortly after as authorities investigated a 2015 trip she made to Crimea. The following day, Alina withdrew in an impassioned social media post.
After Alina’s withdrawal, UA:PBC offered runners-up Kalush Orchestra the opportunity to take her place in Turin. On February 22, “Stefania” was confirmed as Ukraine’s entry for Eurovision 2022.
Ukraine will compete in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2022. Kalush Orchestra are set to perform in the first half of the show on May 10th.
