SRF, the Swiss public broadcaster, will announce its Eurovision entry on March 8th.

In just one week we are going to find out not only the artist that will represent the Alpine country, but also the entry that it will sing.

Switzerland in the Eurovision 🇨🇭

Switzerland debuted at the contest in 1956, being one of the first seven countries. Since then, it has participated in an impressing number of 60 times, missing the event four times – 1995, 1999, 2001 and 2003. The four times the country didn’t participate was due to poor results in the contest – under the rules of the contest only the countries with the best average scores over the previous four years were allowed to participate.

Switzerland has finished 28 times in the Top-10. The country has two victories in its history in 1956 – at the very first contest – and in 1988. In 2019 the country scored 364 points (under the new voting system), making it the most points Switzerland got in any Eurovision Contest it has participated. In contrast, its worst result came in 2004, when not only it was eliminated at the semis, but also finished last with no points. At the finals, Switzerland has placed three times last with no points – 1964, 1967, 1998. In the 21st century, the country has only two Top-10 places, in 2005 and in 2019. Since the introduction of the semis, Switzerland has missed the final 11 out of 16 times.

Until the entry’s reveal, you can listen to the Swiss entry of 2021.
