ESCZ 2023 running order:

- Pam Rabbit
- Markéta Irglová

- RODAN
ESCZ 2023 is set to be an exciting return to a live national final format for the Czech Republic with the last one being held 15 years ago in 2008 with the then Eurosong (2007-2008). Before 2023 the Czech entry was selected via ESCZ’s exclusively online selection format from 2018-2022. The only exception was Benny Cristo’s internal selection in 2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic which cancelled the 2020 contest.
Last year’s Czech representative were the band We are Domi with the song “Lights Off”. The band were first to perform in the Grand Final and placed 22nd overall with 38 points.
