Portuguese broadcaster RTP recently announced that the national final of Portugal will be held on March 10th, 2012 in order to select the next entrant to represent the small nation.

After reports that the privatization of the broadcaster may lead to the countries withdrawal from the contest, RTP has confirmed to Esctoday.com this morning that the final will take place on March 10th, 2012. Additionally, that full details about Portugal’s participation in the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest will be announced next month, some time during the first week of December.

Earlier this year, Homens da Luta represented Portugal in the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 with the song A luta é alegria, where they finished 18th in the first semifinal.
