Greece was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 in Turin, Italy. The Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation (ERT) internally selected Amanda Tenfjord to represent the nation with the song "Die Together", written by Tenfjord and Bjørn Helge Gammelsæter. Tenfjord was announced as the Greek representative on 15 December 2021, with her song later presented to the public on 10 March 2022.
To promote the entry, a music video for the song was created as well as an acoustic version. Greece was drawn to compete in the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 10 May 2022. Performing during the show in position 15, "Die Together" placed third in the semi-final with 211 points and qualified to compete in the final. In the final, held four days later, Greece placed eighth with 215 points.
Background
{{main|Greece in the Eurovision Song Contest}}
Prior to the 2022 contest, Greece had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 41 times since its debut in {{Escyr|1974}}.{{cite web|url=https://eurovision.tv/country/greece|title=Countries – Greece|publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU)|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200422171050/https://eurovision.tv/country/greece|archive-date=22 April 2020|access-date=9 January 2021}} The nation has won the contest once to this point, in {{ESCYr|2005}} with the song "My Number One" performed by Helena Paparizou. Following the introduction of semi-finals for the {{escyr|2004||2004 contest}}, Greece managed to qualify for the final with each of their entries for several years. Between 2004 and 2013, the nation achieved nine top ten placements in the final. {{Escyr|2016}}-entrant Argo with their song "Utopian Land" failed to qualify the nation to the final for the first time ever, marking Greece's worst result at the contest and leading to their absence from the final for the first time since 2000, a contest they did not take part in. In the {{escyr|2018||2018 contest}}, Greece failed to qualify for the second time with Yianna Terzi and the song "{{lang|el-latn|Oniro mou|i=no}}" finishing 14th in the semi-final. For the two contests prior to 2022, the nation once again returned to qualifying for the final, including {{escyr|2021||last year's}} Stefania and her song "Last Dance", which placed 10th with 170 points.
The Greek national broadcaster, Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation (ERT), broadcasts the event within Greece and organises the selection process for the nation's entry.{{cite web|first=Stella|last=Floras|title=Greece shuts down public broadcaster ERT|url=https://esctoday.com/65476/greece-shuts-down-public-broadcaster-ert/|publisher=ESCToday|access-date=13 September 2022|date=11 June 2013}} ERT had been in charge of Greece's participation in the contest since the nation's debut in 1974 until 2013 when the broadcaster was shut down by a government directive and replaced firstly with the interim broadcaster {{lang|el-latn|Dimosia Tileorasi|i=no}} (DT) and then later by New Hellenic Radio, Internet and Television (NERIT).{{cite web|last1=Savaricas|first1=Nathalie|date=11 July 2013|title=Greece's state-run TV service resumes with a blast from the past|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/greeces-state-run-tv-service-resumes-with-a-blast-from-the-past-8703956.html|access-date=18 January 2016|website=The Independent}}{{cite web|date=4 May 2014|title=Greece's replacement public broadcaster launched|url=http://www.dw.com/en/greeces-replacement-public-broadcaster-launched/a-17612095|access-date=18 January 2016|publisher=Deutsche Welle}}{{cite magazine|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fRQEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA17|last=Paravantes|first=Maria|date=11 June 2005|title=Joy In Greece Over Eurovision Win|magazine=Billboard|volume=117|issue=24 |page=17|access-date=16 January 2009|via=Google Books}} Following the victory of the {{lang|el-latn|Syriza|i=no}} party at the January 2015 Greek legislative election, the Hellenic Parliament renamed NERIT to ERT that June.{{cite web|last1=Maltezou|first1=Renee|date=28 April 2015|title=In symbolic move, Greece to reopen shuttered state broadcaster|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/eurozone-greece-television-idUSL5N0W723020150428|access-date=18 January 2016|publisher=Reuters}}{{cite web|date=11 June 2015|title=Greece's state broadcaster ERT back on air after two years|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-33090373|access-date=18 January 2016|publisher=BBC News}} ERT confirmed their intentions to participate at the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest on 6 September 2021.{{cite web|last=Granger|first=Anthony|date=2021-09-06|title=Greece: ERT Formally Submits Application to Compete in Eurovision 2022|url=https://eurovoix.com/2021/09/06/greece-submit-application-eurovision-2022/|access-date=2021-11-01|work=Eurovoix}}

On 7 September 2021, ERT opened a submission period where artists and composers were able to submit up to three songs each for consideration by the broadcaster with a 10 October 2021 deadline. Artists were required to be signed to record labels and their proposal had to indicate the accompanying artistic group as well as ideas or concepts for the song's promotion and presentation.{{cite web|url=https://eurovoix.com/2021/09/07/greece-ert-opens-call-for-eurovision-2022-submissions/|title=Greece: ERT Opens Call For Eurovision 2022 Submissions|access-date=2021-11-01|date=2021-09-07|last=Granger|first=Anthony|work=Eurovoix}}{{Cite web|url=https://eurovisionfun.com/2021/10/ελλάδα-25-προτάσεις-με-περισσότερα-από-40/|last=Argyriou|first=Giannis|script-title=el:Ελλάδα: 25 προτάσεις με περισσότερα από 40 τραγούδια υποβλήθηκαν στην ΕΡΤ!

This included the jury show on 9 May where the professional juries of each country watched and voted on the competing entries.{{cite web|url=https://eurovoix.com/2022/04/21/eurovision-2022-rehearsal-schedule/|title=Eurovision 2022: Rehearsal Schedule Released|date=21 April 2022|access-date=22 September 2022|publisher=Eurovoix|first=James|last=Washak}} Fokas Evangelinos was the stage director for the performance, having served in that role last year for Greece as well.
