Skopje Fest 2008 was the latest edition of the Republic of Macedonia's national selection for Eurovision Song Contest, held in 23 February 2008. The winning song will represent F.Y.R. Macedonia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008, to be held in Belgrade, Serbia on 22 May 2007. However, as FYR Macedonia failed to qualify from the final in 2007, the Macedonian representative will go through the second semi final which was introduced prior 2008 on the 20th qualifying to the final. The 2008 edition of the national final was first considered to be a new edition of Skopje Fest but it was held without that format. The entry will be performed entirely in English.
