North Macedonia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020

North Macedonia participated in the 2020 Eurovision Song Contest in Rotterdam, Netherlands with the song “You”, composed by Nevena Neskoska, Kalina Neskoska and Alice Schroeder. The song was performed by Vasil.

Background
Prior to the 2020 contest, North Macedonia had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest nineteen times since its first entry in 1998 as F.Y.R. Macedonia. The nation's best result in the contest to this point was twelfth, which it achieved in 2006 with the song "Ninanajna" performed by Elena Risteska. Following the introduction of semi-finals for the 2004, Macedonia had featured in only five finals. In 2018, Eye Cue failed to bring the country to the final with their song "Lost and Found", that marked the nation's sixth failure in a row.

Internal selection
On 15 January 2020, MRT announced that Vasil would represent North Macedonia in the 2020 contest.

At Eurovision
According to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big 5" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final progress to the final. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) split up the competing countries into six different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot. On 28 January 2020, 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. North Macedonia was placed into the first semi-final, to be held on 12 May 2020, and was scheduled to perform in the first half of the show.
