Moments ago, Depi Evratesil 2025 has concluded with surprises, as the big favourite to win, Athena Manoukian, was not declared winner. Instead, Parg walked away with the victory, singing his appropriately named song “Survivor“.

HOW TONIGHT’S SHOW STARTED

After a 5-year absence, Armenians tuned into their screens again to watch the 4th edition of Depi Evratesil. Thus, at 17:00 CET, precisely, the flag parade of the 12 candidates took place, as it usually happens at national finals these days.

Then our two presenters for tonight, ARAM MP3 and Ani Khachikyan, from the green room area surrounding the stage, welcomed us to the Karen Demirtchian Sports and Concert Complex.

Righf after, ARAM MP3 explained us everything we need to know about the voting procedure and we went straight to the competitive part of the night!

THE COMPETITIVE PART

PARG kicked off the evening with his dynamic song ” Survivor “, while the big favorite of the evening, Athena Manoukian , gave us an explosive finale with ” DaQueenation “. More specifically, the official running order in which the 12 tonight’s entries were presented was:

INTERVAL ACTS AND THE FINAL RESULTS

At the conclusion of the competitive part it was time for us to watch the first recap video, with the public voting evolving from the beginning of the night.

Three beloved Armenian artists took on the task of entertaining the audience during the voting process. We are talking, of course, about Malena , the big winner of Junior Eurovision 2021 and a burning desire of many fans of the contest to represent Armenia on the stage of the “adult” Eurovision. Malena performed her hit “Flashing Lights” in an impressive performance.

Then, ARAM MP3 got on stage performing his song in Eurovision 2014 “Not Alone” with which he achieved a very respectable 4th place for his country.

Brunette , who took 14th place in Eurovision 2023 with ” Future Lover “, took the stage afterwards.

It’s time for the big moment of the evening, the announcement of the final results. The results of both the national and international jury gave 1st place to Simon, 2nd to Parg and 3rd to Athena Manoukian.

The results of the televoting were added up with those of the committees and the final score gave Parg the victory with 214 points.
