It was announced today that Ilanit will announce Israel’s jury score in the Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2023.

She stated the following:

“I am thrilled to close the cycle of 50 years of Israel’s participation in the Eurovision Song Contest with “Ey sham”, with which I represented Israel for the first time in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1973. I wish dear Noa good luck, I have no doubt that she will do well!”

Ilanit was the first Israeli representative in Eurovision 1973, where she managed to finish in fourth place with the song “Ey sham”.

Finally, she returned for a third time in 1985 with “Balalaika”, but Israel withdrew from the contest that year.

Israel is the fifth country to announce its spokesperson. The other four are:

Greece: Fotis Sergoulopoulos
