    The 18 year old talented act will record a total of five potential entries that will be submitted to the Greek national broadcaster, ERT. However it still remain a question how the Greek Eurovision 2021 entry will be selected and wheather ERT will opt for some kind of song selection like in 2017 or the entry will be determined internally. 

    During her stay in Athens, Stefania, will have the oppotunity to run a number of interviews and TV appearances giving an update to the public of her ESC plans and maybe a hint or two of what to expect from her regarding the potential ESc entries.
