Ukraine: Eurovision 2024 participation confirmed!

Ukraine is going to take part in the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö Sweden.

Suspilne, the national broadcaster of the country, confirmed not only the presence of Ukraine in the 2024 contest, but also the organising of a national final show, which is probably going to be Vidbir 2024.

Ukraine is one of the most successful countries in the modern history of the contest, having won it on three occasions, in 2004, in 2016 and in 2022. It is worth to be mentioned that Ukraine is the only country that has never so far failed to qualify to the Grand Final of Eurovision.

The nation insists on taking part at the contest despite the ongoing war conflict with Russia since February 2022. The Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy considers Eurovision as a means of enhancing and maintaining the awareness of Ukraine’s fight to sustain their sovereignty.

In the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest in Liverpool the country was represented by the duo Tvorchi and the song “Heart of Steel” and ended up in the 6th place having received in total 243 points.
