Just a moment ago, in an RTP press conference broadcast live on the Festival da Canção Instagram account, the 20 performing acts at this year’s edition of the show were revealed.
The composers have been known since 4 November 2021, and there has been much speculation about which ones will perform their songs and which will invite others.
The conference was hosted by, among others, Festival da Canção regulars and grand final hosts Filomena Cautela and Vasco Palmeirim, the former of whom co-hosted the 2018 edition in Lisbon.
