Eleven countries, eleven selection processes, and a season running from August to October before the Grand Final in Bangkok on 14 November.
This is the complete calendar. Two countries have already decided. We update this page after every show.
Already decided
Bhutan — Rhythm of Bhutan (11 August)
Representative: Nyendra with Lhayi Semo (The Angel)
Bhutan became the first country ever to select for Eurovision Asia. Nyendra, a 24-year-old singer-songwriter and producer from Thimphu, won a five-song final at the BBS studios under a 40% jury / 40% domestic / 20% international split.

Malaysia — Internal selection, announced 15 August
Representative: Aina Abdul. Song to be revealed.
Malaysia went internal rather than running a competitive final, with Media Prima’s TV3 announcing Aina Abdul during Anugerah Juara Lagu. The song has not yet been released.

How to watch — all of them, free
Every national final streams on the official Eurovision YouTube channel, in addition to each broadcaster’s domestic platforms. There is no geoblocking to work around and no subscription required.
How to vote — from anywhere
Each show carries a Rest of the World vote open to international viewers. Voting happens at eurovisionasia.com during the broadcast.
The key rule: you get eight free votes and you must spread them across at least three songs. You cannot stack them all on one favourite. Ten more votes can be purchased, capped there.
Full mechanics in our Rest of the World voting guide.
Next up: the Philippines
Sunday 30 August is the biggest selection of the season so far — ten original songs, Vice Ganda hosting, live from the New Frontier Theater in Quezon City. Our full preview covers every song and every timezone.
What happens after October
All selections conclude ahead of the Grand Final on Saturday 14 November at IdeaLive in Bangkok. The final is a single show — no semi-finals — decided by a 50/50 split between professional juries and public voting.
Standard Eurovision rules apply: songs under three minutes, no more than six performers on stage.
A note on dates
Several of these are provisional. Cambodia has an approximate window rather than a fixed date, and Vietnam has not announced at all with roughly eleven weeks remaining. Broadcasters have also shifted timings once already this season.
We verify against broadcaster announcements rather than aggregators, and log corrections in our Eurovision Asia fact-check.
