Earlier today, the Dutch public broadcaster confirmed the country’s participation in Eurovision 2026 and announced that a total of 331 songs were submitted for consideration to represent the Netherlands in the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest, set to take place this May in Basel.

The submission period for entries to represent the Netherlands in Eurovision 2025 has officially closed, with 331 songs submitted for the internal selection process that will determine the country’s entry for the competition.

According to Cornald Maas, a renowned Dutch presenter and Eurovision commentator, who spoke to RTL Boulevard, he has already listened to all 331 submissions. Maas revealed that there is one specific song that stands out and appears ready to win the contest.

Maas, a seasoned Eurovision expert widely recognized for his involvement in the festival, described the selection process as particularly challenging this year, given the diverse range of musical styles and themes among the entries. Despite the wealth of talent on display, he emphasized that one song shines above the rest and seems like a strong contender for victory.
