Eurovision Song Contest
The song represented the Czech Republic in the Eurovision Song Contest 2019, after Lake Malawi was chosen through Eurovision Song CZ, the national selection process organised by Česká televize to select Czech Republic's entry for the Eurovision Song Contest. On 28 January 2019, 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. Czech Republic was placed into the first semi-final, to be held on 14 May 2019, and was scheduled to perform in the first half of the show. Once all the competing songs for the 2019 contest had been released, the running order for the semi-finals was decided by the shows' producers rather than through another draw, so that similar songs were not placed next to each other. Czech Republic performed in position 6, and gained enough votes to qualify for the grand final.[3] It finished in 11th place with 157 points, 150 gained from the juries and 7 from the public televote.
