The WikiProject has received a new look, in the colours of the 2024 contest host country, Sweden. Be sure to take a look at the newly redesigned News Desk and the new Archive tab (which is still under construction).
There have been discussions of creating a broader project encompassing all song contests. Be sure to share your thoughts in the WikiProject talk page.

A Coruña, Spain will host the AI Song Contest 2023 on 9 November, with the theme "Walking with AI" (Spanish: O camiño da IA). It is hosted by Galacia after their entry was runner-up last year.
The 2024 contest will take place in Malmö, Sweden after being chosen over Stockholm, with Gothenberg and Örnsköldsvik also applying to host. Malmö will stage the event for the third time (following the 1992 and 2013 contests), and will be held on the 7, 9 and 11 May in the Malmö Arena, the same venue as the 2013 edition.
After being held in 2017 and 2019, the choral contest has been cancelled after preperations had already begun by national broadcasters for the 2023 edition.
The 2023 edition will take place in Eskilstuna, Sweden and will feature 24 entries which failed to be selected to take part in this year's Eurovision Song Contest.
A play on the word Eurovision, the most creative and notable outfit award replaces the Barbara Dex Award, and has been awarded by Eurovision fans to Sheldon Riley and Käärijä in 2022 and 2023 respectively.
