Cyprus was set to be represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 with the song "Running", written by Alessandro Rütten, Alfie Arcuri, Sebastian Rickards, Octavian Rasinariu, and Teo DK, and performed by Rütten himself under his stage name Sandro. The Cypriot participating broadcaster, Cyprus Broadcasting Corporation (CyBC), internally selected its entry for the contest. To promote the entry, a music video was released and Sandro appeared at a pre-party in Sweden to perform it live. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the contest was cancelled in mid-March.
