==At Eurovision==
The Eurovision Song Contest 2000 took place at the Globe Arena in Stockholm, Sweden, on 13 May 2000.<ref name="Stockholm 2000">{{cite web |title=Stockholm 2000–Eurovision Song Contest |url=https://eurovision.tv/event/stockholm-2000|publisher=[[European Broadcasting Union]] (EBU)|website=eurovision.tv|access-date=16 October 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210102233622/https://eurovision.tv/event/stockholm-2000 |archive-date=2 January 2021 |url-status=live}}</ref> According to the [[Rules of the Eurovision Song Contest|Eurovision rules]], the 24-country participant list for the contest was composed of: the winning country from the previous year's contest; the 18 countries, other than the previous year's winner, which had obtained the highest average number of points over the last five contests; and any countries which had not participated in the previous year's content. Cyprus was one of the 18 countries with the highest average scores, and thus were permitted to participate. The running order for the contest was decided by a draw; Cyprus was assigned position 11, following {{Esccnty|Belgium|y=2000}} and preceding {{Esccnty|Iceland|y=2000}}.<ref name="Stockholm 2000" /> The performance included backing vocals by George Gabriel, Lina Kawar, Christina Lazarou, and Michael Moschou.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cybc.com.cy:80/EUROVISION2000.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20000818202635/http://www.cybc.com.cy:80/EUROVISION2000.html|title=Eurovision Song Contest Cyprus Entry 2000|year=2000|access-date=10 December 2023|archive-date=18 August 2000|publisher=[[Cyprus Broadcasting Corporation]] (CyBC)|website=cybc.com.cy}}</ref> At the end of the voting, Cyprus received only 8 points, placing 21st in the field of 24 countries. Due to poor results, Cyprus was not permitted to take part in the [[Eurovision Song Contest 2001|2001 Contest]] the next year; however, they were re-admitted for the following year.
"[[Nomiza]]" was performed eleventh on the night (following [[Belgium]]'s [[Nathalie Sorce]] with "[[Envie de vivre]]" and preceding [[Iceland]]'s [[August & Telma]] with "[[Tell Me!]]"). At the close of voting, it had received 8 points, placing 21st in a field of 24.
 
===Voting===
Due to poor results, Cyprus was not permitted to take part in the [[Eurovision Song Contest 2001|2001 Contest]]; however, they were re-admitted for the following year. Thus, the song was succeeded as [[Cyprus in the Eurovision Song Contest|Cypriot representative]] at the [[Eurovision Song Contest 2002|2002 Contest]] by [[One (band)|One]] with "[[Gimme (One song)|Gimme]]".
The same voting system in use since 1975 was again implemented for this event, with each country providing 1–8, 10 and 12 points to the ten highest-ranking songs as determined by a selected jury or the viewing public through televoting, with countries not allowed to vote for themselves. This was the third contest to feature widespread public voting, and Cyprus opted to implement this method to determine which countries would receive their points, with an 8-member back-up jury assembled in case technical failures rendered the telephone votes invalid. The Cypriot televoting awarded its 12 points to [[Russia]].
