Luxembourg in the Eurovision Song Contest Luxembourg has an illustrious history in the Eurovision Song Contest, despite a long absence. The country participated in the very first contest in 1956 and became one of the competition’s most successful nations, winning five times between 1961 and 1983. The first victory came in 1961 with Jean-Claude Pascal’s “Nous les amoureux”, followed by a win in 1965 with “Poupée de cire, poupée de son” by France Gall. The 1970s and early 1980s saw Luxembourg continuing to shine with standout performances, including Vicky Leandros‘s “Après Toi” (1972), Anne-Marie David‘s “Tu te reconnaîtras” (1973) and Corinne Hermès‘s “Si la vie est cadeau” (1983). Luxembourg’s strategic approach involved often hiring famous international artists and songwriters, giving the country an edge in a competition where musical quality and presentation were key. However, financial difficulties and shifting priorities led to Luxembourg’s withdrawal after 1993, leaving fans nostalgic for their golden years. In 2024, Luxembourg made its triumphant return to the Eurovision Song Contest, marking its first appearance in 30 years.  Share
