The Netherlands is set to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 in Malmö, Sweden. The Dutch broadcaster AVROTROS is internally selecting the Dutch entry for the 2024 contest.

Background

Main article: Netherlands in the Eurovision Song Contest

Prior to the 2024 contest, the Netherlands has participated in the Eurovision Song Contest sixty-three times since its debut as one of seven countries to take part in the inaugural contest in 1956. Since then, the country has won the event five times: in 1957 with the song "Net als toen" by Corry Brokken, in 1959 with the song "'n Beetje" by Teddy Scholten, in 1969 as one of the four countries to tie for first place with "De troubadour" by Lenny Kuhr, in 1975 with "Ding-a-dong" by Teach-In, and in 2019 with "Arcade" by Duncan Laurence. Following the introduction of semi-finals for the 2004 contest, the Netherlands has featured in nine finals. The country ended last on five occasions, most recently in the second semi-final of the 2011 contest. In 2023, the nation failed to qualify for the final with "Burning Daylight" by Mia Nicolai and Dion Cooper.[1]

The Dutch national broadcaster, AVROTROS, broadcasts the event within the Netherlands and organises the selection process for the nation's entry. The Netherlands has used various methods to select the Dutch entry in the past, such as the Nationaal Songfestival, a live televised national final to choose the performer, song or both to compete at Eurovision. Internal selections have also been held on numerous occasions, including every year since 2013.[2] In May 2023, AVROTROS confirmed its participation in the 2024 contest,[3] later confirming on 12 July that it would continue to internally select both the artist and song for the Eurovision Song Contest.[4][5]

Before Eurovision

Internal selection

On 12 July 2023, AVROTROS opened a submission window where artists and composers would be able to submit up to three entries until 30 September 2023. For the first time, applying composers were not required to indicate a perfomer for their song, who would be selected afterwards; however, precedence would be given to complete submissions.[4][5]

Artists known to have submitted an entry include Joost Klein and Donnie (jointly), Leonie Meijer, Louisa Janssen [nl], The Jordan, Douwe Bob (2016 Dutch representative) individually and as a songwriter for Numidia [nl], April Darby [nl], and De Bankzitters [nl]; DJ trio Kris Kross Amsterdam expressed their willingness to accept a direct invitation by the broadcaster.[6][7][8][9][10] By the end of the application period, over 600 songs – mostly in English, with about a hundred in Dutch – had been submitted to the broadcaster, which is a record for Dutch national selections.[11][12][13]

The selection is being carried out by a committee composed of Jacqueline Govaert, Jaap Reesema, Carolien Borgers [nl], Hila Noorzai [nl], Cornald Maas, Sander Lantinga and chairman Twan van de Nieuwenhuijzen.[14] By the end of October 2023, all the submissions had been assessed and were in the process of being narrowed down to a shortlist,[13] which by mid-November was reported to be of ten artists,[4][5][10][15] with Karsu and Numidia were reportedly left in the running by 7 December.[16]The selected entrant is set to be announced on 11 December.[17]
