On 15 February 2018, the Faroese broadcaster KVF announced that the country would be participating at the twenty-fifth edition of the contest, opting for an internal selection again. Unlike the previous internal selections, the broadcaster updated the format of choosing the song. An internal jury narrowed down the submitted entries to five possible entries, then presented them to heads of delegations around the continent which had to rate each entry. Based on the rankings, the broadcaster decided which entry is going to represent the Faroe Islands at the contest.
On 6 May, KVF revealed a teaser including a release date (27 May 2018) for the chosen entry. It was revealed on 27 May 2018 that Lea Kampmann is the representative of the Faroe Islands with her song "Moonsick".
