Eurovision 2026 Thread - Austria [Host city TBD]
 

No. I like when countries submit in their own languages. We’re overdue a non English language song to win.

Incorrect, as usual.

Please just ignore him. It’ll be another Eurovision thread he ruins for a year as per usual

Kazakhstan's broadcaster Khabar Agency had a representative meet up with EBU officials recently

maybe a special invite :think: we can hope for, they've been wanting that for many years now anyway



Slovakia aren't closing the door to a comeback either so i read


and since Romania has a pro-EU candidate winning their presidential elections, i could see a possible comeback, but it'll also depend on if there are artists who are willing to fund their participation, so might return with internal selection, as that is more appealing to bigger names :think:


Andorra might've said no, however i could see Catalonia trying to convince them to make up their minds, with their talent show Euforia, as selection method :think:


Monaco is a difficult one to guess, they have a new broadcaster especially for entertainment shows like eurovision but a grand comeback takes time of course, and also with which selection method



San Marino might withdraw yes, but i don't know, and i do hope they'll be in after all, i like following their national selection so and it provides artists across the world with a another chance of going to eurovision



do think Israel will continue to be in, since EBU won't want to lose Italy, Germany as they are two of the big 5 who pay the most


and Spain's anti-israel boycotts will tone down after next elections once Sanchez is out of office i think, however i do hope for a change within Benidorm Fest, i myself would want Efecto Pasillo to represent them, with genuine fun vibes and a solid latin pop act

manifesting Israel to have more sanity, and go with Balkan Beat Box internally, for an ethno serve a la Serbia 2018, they have very much potential for that, with something similar to ''Adir Adirim''


BBB would justify their landslide televoting result so much more :D



we need something fun from Israel rather than those cliché peace ballads
