Before Eurovision
Piosenka dla Europy 2007
Piosenka dla Europy 2007 was the national final organised by TVP in order to select the Polish entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2007. The show took place on 3 February 2007 at the TVP Headquarters in Warsaw, hosted by Artur Orzech and Paulina Chylewska. Public televoting exclusively selected the winner.
Competing entries
TVP opened a submission period for interested artists and songwriters to submit their entries between 15 September 2007 and 15 November 2007. The broadcaster received 90 submissions at the closing of the deadline, of which 79 were eligible.[1] A three-member selection committee selected ten entries from the received submissions to compete in the national final. The selection committee consisted of Gina Komasa (TVP director of entertainment), Piotr Klatt (journalist, musician) and Zygmunt Kulka (conductor, composer). The selected entries were announced on 23 November 2006.[2]
Final
The televised final took place on 3 February 2007. Ten entries competed and the winner, "Time To Party" performed by The Jet Set, was determined entirely by a public vote.
