After more than a decade away from the Eurovision stage, Slovakia is officially considering a return in 2026! National broadcaster RTVS has confirmed internal discussions are underway about rejoining the world’s biggest music competition—sparking excitement across the Eurovision community.
Slovakia last participated in 2012, and since then, fans have longed to see the country make a comeback. While previous years brought repeated denials—often citing financial or strategic reasons—2026 might be the turning point.
In a recent interview with Slovak media, representatives from RTVS revealed that a return is “on the table” and that the broadcaster is evaluating budget feasibility, audience interest, and potential selection methods. Notably, they’ve also hinted at the possibility of partnering with private production companies or regional music festivals to support a national final format.
The Eurovision fandom is already buzzing, with hashtags like #ComeBackSlovakia and #Slovakia2026 trending as fans rally for the country’s return. Neighboring countries like Czechia and Austria—both active Eurovision participants—are seen as success stories that could inspire RTVS’s final decision.
While nothing is confirmed yet, Slovakia’s potential comeback is one of the most exciting developments on the road to Eurovision 2026. A return would mark a long-awaited revival for a country that’s been dearly missed in the contest.
Will 2026 finally be the year Slovakia says Ahoj to Eurovision once again? We’ll be watching this space very closely. 👀🎤🇸🇰
