This afternoon, the European Broadcasting Union (the EBU), announced the countries that will be participating at the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest, in Malmö.

Malmö will see 37 participating countries, just like Liverpool. However, Luxembourg returns after a thirty year break and it seems Romania have withdrawn – or have they? The full list of 37 participating countries and their broadcasters are:

•  Albania – RTSH
•  Armenia – AMPTV
•  Australia – SBS
•  Austria – ORF
•  Azerbaijan – İctimai
•  Belgium – RTBF
•  Croatia – HRT

There may still be hope from Romania and their broadcaster TVR. Talks are continuing between the EBU and TVR on their potential participation as well. This could be the same with some other countries.
