Canada will be part of Eurovision 2027, says CBC/Radio-Canada

  • Canada will submit its application for Eurovision 2027 to the EBU after CBC/Radio-Canada passes the necessary conditions.
  • The EBU and CBC/Radio-Canada may agree on the exact details of the application.
  • At the contest, Canadian artists, including Céline Dion, Natasha St-Pier, and La Zarra, will represent their country.

Canada will take part in Eurovision 2027, CBC/Radio-Canada reported, citing a European Broadcasting Union (EBU) decision. The decision was made in early 2026.

It has been noted that the Canadian participants will be selected in a way similar to how CBC/Radio-Canada selects its EBU entries. Details will be announced later.

Organizers have confirmed that Canada will submit its application for Eurovision 2027. Details include that the same rules will apply as for other countries, and that the country will be able to submit its entry for the contest.

The matter is that Canada has been a participant in Eurovision since 2015, when it first took part. The country’s entry was chosen by a special selection process. The selection process is organized by the EBU.

As for how the Canadian artists will be selected, it is expected that the following artists will be involved: Céline Dion, who represented France in 1988, and Natasha St-Pier and La Zarra, who represented France in 2001 and 2023, respectively.

It is also noted that the official song for the Canadian entry will be Bangarang, and that Eurovision 2027 will be held in Sofia.
