Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 1987
Danmarks Radio (DR) held the Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 1987 on 28 February at 20:15 CEST, hosted by Jørgen de Mylius at the Tivoli Concert Hall in Copenhagen.[1] Ten songs took part with the winner being decided by voting from five regional juries in two rounds. Firstly the five lowest-placed songs were eliminated without full voting being revealed, then the remaining five were voted on again to give the winner. Other participants included past and future Danish representatives Dario Campeotto, Tommy Seebach, Birthe Kjær and Kirsten Siggaard of Hot Eyes.
The national final was also broadcast in Greenland's KNR-TV on a delayed broadcast in 14 March.[2]
