Albania was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 9 May 2024 and was later selected to perform in position 2.

In 2023, it qualified for the final, ultimately placing 22nd and scoring 76 points with the song "Duje" performed by Albina and Familja Kelmendi.

[4] The Albanian representative in the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 was selected during the 62nd edition of Festivali i Këngës, an annual music competition in Albania organised by RTSH at the Palace of Congresses in Tirana.

Besa with "Zemrën n'dorë" emerged as the winner of the public vote and was thus chosen as the Albanian representative for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.

[13] In early January 2024, Besa confirmed that "Zemrën n'dorë" would undergo a revamp ahead of the contest,[14] set to be released on 11 March.

[34] The Albanian jury consisted of Julian Bulku, Rael Hoxha, Zana Prela, Erina Seitllari, and Olimpia Smajlaj.

Over the course of the contest, Albania awarded its 12 points to Israel in the second semi-final, and to Switzerland (jury) and Croatia (televote) in the final.

Each participating broadcaster assembles a five-member jury panel consisting of music industry professionals who are citizens of the country they represent.
