Artsvik will represent Armenia at the 2017 Eurovision Song Contest after winning the national selection tv series Depi Evratesil (To Eurovision). The tv show stretched over a number of weeks beginning in October and culminated with Artsvik’s victory.
The result was decided by a combination of televoting and expert jury. The jury members were all well known to Eurovision and had all represented Armenia previously Iveta Mukuchyan (2016), Essai Altounian – part of Genealogy (2015), Aram MP3 (2014), Inga & Anush (2009) and Hayko (2007).

“It’s the most wonderful night of the year… and most special this year because there’s a national final called Depi Evratesil on it! It takes lots of patience to see my country chooses it’s Eurostars, just as I do enjoying my Esc and jesc songs.
It’s a show between Marta Kirakosyan and Artsvik Arutyunyan to become the next Armenian Eurostar. I wonder who’ll follow Iveta’s footsteps in Eurovision. Happy Holidays from me and all Eurofriends” By Yerevan Eurofriend
