Next January the live shows will take place over three days, with two semi-finals on January 26 and 28, and a Final on January 30.
As yet it is unclear if RTVE will return to the Eurovision Song Contest 2027 taking place in Bulgaria next May. Last year, the Spanish broadcaster withdrew from the contest in the aftermath of the EBU General Assembly. Tensions surrounding Israel’s continued participation were a contributing factor. However, the broadcaster chose to still go ahead with Benidorm Fest 2026 as a stand-alone festival offering a music contract and monetary prize instead of a Eurovision ticket. The winners were, Tony Grox and Lucycalys with ‘T amaré’.
