Eurovision Spain latest to join growing song contest boycott
The Guardian
|September 17, 2025
Spain has become the latest country to confirm it will not take part in next year’s Eurovision song contest if Israel participates, with the head of its state broadcaster saying “the genocide currently taking place make[s] it impossible for us to look the other way”.
The majority decision by RTVE board members makes Spain the first of the “big five” Eurovision countries that contribute the most money to the event to take such action in response to Israel’s offensive in Gaza.
Similar decisions have already been made by Slovenia, Ireland and the Netherlands. The vote was held yesterday, the same day a UN commission of inquiry concluded Israel was committing genocide in Gaza.
