Canada to compete in Eurovision 2027, EBU confirms

The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) confirmed Wednesday that Canada will participate in the Eurovision Song Contest 2027. The announcement follows years of speculation about a possible Canadian entry.

The EBU confirmed the news on Wednesday afternoon, marking a significant expansion of the contest beyond its traditional European-Australian footprint. Canada, a non-European nation, will join as an associate participant. The specific format of Canada's entry and selection process have not yet been detailed. The EBU has not commented on whether other non-European countries may follow. The decision comes amid ongoing discussions about broadening Eurovision's international reach.
