The Eurovision Song Contest 2022 will be the 66th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. The contest will be hosted in Italy, following the country's victory at the 2021 contest in Rotterdam, Netherlands, with the song "Zitti e buoni", performed by Måneskin. It will be the third contest to be held in Italy, after Naples in 1965 and Rome in 1991.[1]

By Eurovision tradition, Italy received the right to host the Eurovision Song Contest after the country won the competition in 2021. On 23 May 2021, representatives from the cities of Bologna, Milan, Pesaro, Naples and Turin expressed their interest in hosting the contest.[2][3][4]
On the same day, the Mayor of Reggio Emilia, Luca Vecchi, expressed interest in hosting the contest in the new RCF Arena, the largest open-air arena in Europe with a capacity of 100,000 spectators located in the Campovolo area in the Emilian town.[5] Also the Mayor of Rome, Virginia Raggi, expressed interest in hosting the contest.[6]

Eligibility for potential participation in the Eurovision Song Contest requires a national broadcaster with active EBU membership that would be able to broadcast the contest via the Eurovision network. The EBU has issued invitations to all active members. Associate member Australia does not need an invitation for the 2022 contest, as it had previously been granted permission to participate at least until 2023.[29]
Active EBU members
Andorra – In November 2019, Democrats for Andorra, the ruling party of Andorra, stated that the country would eventually return to the contest, with a cost assessment as a prerequisite.[30] Susanne Georgi, the 2009 Andorran representative, stated in May 2020 that she had secured the funding required for the country to return.[31] Later that year, on 1 August 2020, Georgi explained on Eurovision fan website Wiwibloggs' podcast that she had held a meeting with Prime Minister of Andorra Xavier Espot Zamora, in which they verbally agreed to make a return in 2022 (as they did not want to participate in 2021 under the circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic).[32]
Morocco – Following the signing of the normalization agreement between Israel and Morocco on 10 December 2020, Morocco's participation in Eurovision has become possible.[33] Eran Sikurel, a politician and radio host with the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation (IPBC), called on Moroccan broadcaster SNRT to return to the contest on his Twitter account, but no response has been received.[34]
