The Netherlands will not compete in the 2027 Eurovision Song Contest because no Dutch broadcasters are willing to support the country's participation amid protests over Israel's involvement. This follows a boycott of the 2026 contest by the Netherlands and several other European nations, including Ireland, Iceland, Spain, and Slovenia, protesting Israel's military actions in Gaza.

The Netherlands will not participate in the 2027 Eurovision Song Contest due to a lack of broadcasting entities willing to take responsibility for the country's involvement, the Dutch public broadcaster announced Tuesday. This decision comes amid ongoing concerns related to Israel's participation in the competition.
Last month, the broadcaster had expressed confidence in the Netherlands' return to the contest in 2026, following a boycott of the 2026 edition. This optimism was based on the belief that the European Broadcasting Union had addressed criticisms from countries that abstained from the 2026 event. However, ultimately, no Dutch broadcaster has shown readiness to support the Netherlands' participation.
In May, Ireland, Iceland, Spain, Slovenia, and the Netherlands all boycotted the Eurovision Song Contest in protest against Israel's participation and its military campaign in the Gaza Strip.
