RTÉ has launched the search for Ireland’s entry to the 69th Eurovision Song Contest

Following the impressive performance of Bambie Thug in Malmö in 2024, the next entry has big shoes to fill. The submission process for the Eurovision 2025 is now open, giving artists an 8-week window, from Monday 23 September to 18:00 CET on Monday 18 November.

Ireland’s 2024 entry, “Doomsday Blue”, not only secured 6th place – the country’s best result since 2000 – but also received international praise. The song has over 24 million streams on Spotify, and its Grand Final performance has been viewed more than 9.4 million times on YouTube.

Michael Kealy, Ireland’s Head of Delegation, highlighted that Eurovision is a unique opportunity for artists to make a name on the global stage, encouraging musicians from across the country to submit their entries.
