Eligibility for participation in the Eurovision Song Contest requires a national broadcaster with active EBU membership capable of receiving the contest via the Eurovision network and broadcasting it live nationwide. The EBU issues an invitation to participate in the contest to all active members. Countries that are a part of the "Big Five" and the host country are expected to be automatically allocated a place in the final of the contest, while all other countries will be placed in one of the two semi-finals.

As of May 2024, the following countries have confirmed their intention to participate in the 2025 contest:

Other countries[edit]

EBU members[edit]

  •  Albania – In early May 2024, Andri Xhahu, Eurovision commentator and spokesperson for the RTSH, revealed that preparations had started for the next edition of Festivali i Këngës, the national song competition traditionally used to select the Albanian entry for the contest.[8]
  •  Bosnia and Herzegovina – In its broadcasting program for 2024, Bosnian broadcaster BHRT outlined its plans for the year, including a statement that "it is high time to consider the possibility of returning [...] to the Eurovision Song Contest in 2025". The broadcaster is still currently under EBU sanctions due to debts.[9] Bosnia and Herzegovina last took part in 2016.
  •  Croatia – Replying to an Ask Me Anything on Reddit in April 2024, the Mayor of Zagreb Tomislav Tomašević stated that Zagreb is ready to host Eurovision in 2025 if Croatia is to win the contest in 2024, and that Zagreb Arena is already booked for the event.[10] In early May 2024, prior to the 2024 contest, it was reported that the Croatian national broadcaster HRT had asked Zagreb Arena not to book any events for April and May 2025, to ensure availability in the event of a Croatian victory in 2024.[11] Croatia did not win.
  •  France – On 27 November 2023, during the winner's press conference of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2023, deputy director general of France Télévisions Stéphane Sitbon-Gomez announced the broadcaster's intention to win the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 in order to host the 2025 edition.[12]
  •  Germany – On 6 September 2023, it was reported that German broadcaster NDR, which has been responsible for the country's Eurovision participations since 1996, was considering handing over responsibility to a different member of the ARD network in 2025, with MDR being the most likely candidate.[13] According to reports, an official agreement for MDR to be in charge of the German selection from 2025 was finalised by 22 January 2024.[14]
  •  Ireland – In January 2024, Michael Kealy, the head of the Irish delegation in the contest, expressed his hopes that in 2025 RTÉ will be able to produce a national final format independent from The Late Late Show, plans for which were halted in 2023 following a financial scandal.[15]
  •  Lithuania – Shortly before the beginning of the 2024 contest, the head of the Lithuanian delegation, Audrius Giržadas [lt], discussed the possible cities that could host the contest in Lithuania in the event of a victory, which include Kaunas and Vilnius.[16]
  •  Montenegro – On 5 January 2024, Montenegro's national broadcaster RTCG published a report from a public debate held on 4 December 2023 concerning their production plans for 2024. In the report, the broadcaster states that it "plans on organising a music festival to promote Montenegrin artists and authors, and which would (depending on the budget) be used as a way to select the representative for Eurovision 2025".[17][18] Montenegro last took part in 2022.
  •  Norway – Between 5 and 7 April 2024, the first songwriting camp for the 2025 edition of Melodi Grand Prix, the traditional Norwegian national final event, was held.[19]
  •  San Marino – In October 2023, Sammarinese broadcaster San Marino RTV announced to have renewed the contract for the organisation of the national final format Una voce per San Marino for two editions, i.e. until 2025.[20] However, following the country's third failed qualification in a row in 2024, secretary of state for tourism Federico Pedini Amati discussed the possibility of withdrawing from the contest.[21]
  •  Slovakia – Following a restructuring of its financing model in 2023, Slovak broadcaster RTVS was considering a return to the contest in 2025 and was actively working to secure the funding needed to participate.[22][23][24] However, in April 2024, the head of marketing communication at RTVS, Zuzana Vicelová, stated that the country would not compete in 2025 due to budget cuts.[25] Slovakia last took part in 2012.
  •  Slovenia – On 9 March 2024, Mario Galunič [sl], editor at RTVSLO, drafted a document, with one of the points being a plan to return to selecting Slovene entries for Eurovision through the national final EMA [es; sl] from 2025 until 2028.[26][27] In 2023 and 2024, the broadcaster selected its entries internally, despite originally intending to organise a national final in both years.

Non-EBU members[edit]

  •  Kosovo – On 29 October 2023, in the wake of the first edition of Festivali i Këngës, the intended Kosovan national selection event for Eurovision, the CEO of Kosovan broadcaster RTK, Besnik Boletini, reaffirmed the country's continued efforts in order to be included in the contest as early as 2025.[28] A vote on the draft of Kosovo's application to the Council of Europe took place on 16 April 2024, which was approved by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. The Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe was set to decide on Kosovo's membership in May 2024,[29] but was removed from the agenda following Kosovo's rejection of French and German prerequisites for membership.[30] Membership in the council would enable Kosovo to join the EBU as a full member and compete in the contest by 2025.[31][32] In May 2024, RTK announced that it would submit an application for EBU membership "soon".[33]

Other countries[edit]

Active EBU members[edit]

  •  North Macedonia – In mid-September 2023, Macedonian broadcaster MRT published its budget plan for the 2023/2024 season, which included a sum of money allocated for participation in the 2024 contest.[36] However, in late October 2023, the programme planning chair of MRT, Smilka Janeska Sarkanjac, clarified that a decision was yet to be made and the plan was still awaiting the approval of the government. As of 29 October 2023, it was expected to be finalised soon.[37]
  •  Romania – On 12 September 2023, it was reported that Romanian broadcaster TVR had submitted a new budget plan to the Ministry of Finance and that the country's participation in 2024 would depend on its approval.[38] In late October 2023, it was reported that the plan had been approved and that a law was soon to be modified in order to secure the government's direct funding towards the broadcaster for the costs of participation in EBU events, meaning that Romania would most likely take part in the contest.[39][40]

Active EBU member broadcasters in Andorra, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Monaco and Slovakia have so far confirmed non-participation prior to the announcement of the participants list by the EBU.[41][42][43][44]

Associate EBU members[edit]

  •  Australia – In 2019, Australian broadcaster SBS was granted participation in the contest until 2023. On 21 September 2023, SBS revealed that it was in talks with the EBU to secure the country's participation in future editions.[45] On 31 October 2023, the broadcaster confirmed that it would broadcast the 2024 contest and stated its intention to continue competing in the event, but added that the country's future participation was still under discussion.[46][47]

Non-EBU members[edit]

  •  Kosovo – In February 2023, Kosovar broadcaster RTK started to develop its intended national selection format for Eurovision, Festivali i Këngës, while pushing for EBU membership and for a Eurovision 2024 invitation.[48][49][50] On 16 October 2023, shortly before its launch, the director of the festival, Adi Krasta, confirmed that Kosovo would not be taking part in Eurovision in 2024, but reported that directors at EBU were "extremely enthusiastic" about the festival.[50][51]

Contest themes and slogans[edit]

An individual slogan has been associated with each edition of the contest since 2002, except in 2009.[122][123] This slogan is decided by the host broadcaster and is then used to develop the contest's visual identity and design.[124] This slogan is typically used by the producers in planning and formulating the show's visual identity, and is channelled into the contest's stage design, the opening and interval acts, and the "postcards": short videos interspersed between the entries which usually highlight the host country, and in many cases introduce the competing acts.[125][126][127]
