Montenegro in the Eurovision Song Contest 2018

Performing during the show in position 16, "Inje" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final.

[5] Montevizija 2018 was the national final organised by RTCG in order to select the Montenegrin entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2018.

Five entries competed in a televised final on 17 February 2018, which was held at the Hilton Hotel in Podgorica and hosted by Dajana Golubović Pejović and Ivan Maksimović.

[14][15] Vanja Radovanović recorded the music video for "Inje" in March 2018, which was filmed in Kotor, Stari Bar, Valdanos and Cetinje and directed by Gojko Berkuljan.

[17] Vanja Radovanović made several appearances across Europe to specifically promote "Inje" as the Montenegrin Eurovision entry.

[18] On 14 April, Radovanović performed during the Eurovision in Concert event which was held at the AFAS Live venue in Amsterdam, Netherlands and hosted by Edsilia Rombley and Cornald Maas.

On 29 January 2018, a special allocation draw was held which placed each country into one of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show they would perform in.

The stage lighting displayed from dark blue and white colours before changing into yellow and red for the climax.

[30] The five backing vocalists performing with Vanja Radovanović were Ana Mašulović, Ivana Vladović, Jelena Đurić and Lena Kuzmanović and the pianist was Bole Martinović.

Each nation's jury consisted of five music industry professionals who are citizens of the country they represent, with their names published before the contest to ensure transparency.

This jury judged each entry based on: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act.

In addition, no member of a national jury was permitted to be related in any way to any of the competing acts in such a way that they cannot vote impartially and independently.
