Finale nationale du Concours Eurovision de la Chanson 1992
Walloon broadcaster Radio-télévision belge de la Communauté française (RTBF) had the turn to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest 1992 representing Belgium. RTBF held the national final on 8 March 1992 at 20:05 (CET) in its television studios, hosted by Thierry Luthers. The winner was chosen by five regional juries (Brabant, Hainaut, Liège, Luxembourg, Namur), plus a jury of music professionals. All the juries handed out songs in the same way as is done in the Eurovision Song Contest: 12 points to the top song, 10 points to the second top song, then 8 through to 1 points for the rest of the top ten songs.[1][2]
