Norway has been represented at theEurovision Song Contest 63 times since making its debut in1960 and has only been absent twice since then. In1970 , the country boycotted the contest over disagreements about the voting structure, and in2002 , they were relegated. The Norwegian participating broadcaster in the contest isNorsk rikskringkasting Melodi Grand Prix .
Before 1985, Norway's best result in the contest was a third-place with "Intet er nytt under solen " byÅse Kleveland in1966 . Norway's three victories in the contest were achieved by "La det swinge " byBobbysocks in1985 , "Nocturne " bySecret Garden in1995 , and "Fairytale " byAlexander Rybak in2009 . Norway also finished second at the1996 contest, with "I evighet Elisabeth Andreassen . Norway has finished last in twelve Eurovision finals, of which four times with "nul points ". Norway has a total of 12 top-five results in the contest, the latest being a fifth place with "Queen of Kings " byAlessandra in2023 .
Norsk rikskringkasting European Broadcasting Union (EBU), thus eligible to participate in theEurovision Song Contest . It has participated in the contest representing Norway since itsfifth edition in 1960.
NRK's first entrant in the contest was "Voi Voi " performed byNora Brockstedt in1960 , who finished fourth; Brockstedt would returnthe next year with "Sommer i Palma ", this time placing seventh. "Intet er nytt under solen " byÅse Kleveland then finished third in1966 , following which Norway would fail to reach the top ten in fourteen out of their next fifteen attempts, with the exception being seventh place finish with "It's Just a Game" by theBendik Singers in1973 . Before1985 , Norway had only received a top-ten score in six out of twenty-four attempts, and had finished last the same number of times.
Bobbysocks gave the country its first victory in 1985, with the song "La det swinge ". Norway went on to achieve two more top five results over the next ten years, withKaroline Krüger in1988 andSilje Vige in1993 , who both finished fifth.
Norway's second victory came in1995 withSecret Garden 's mainly instrumental Celtic-influenced ethno-piece "Nocturne ". In1996 ,Elisabeth Andreassen , who had won the contest as one half of Bobbysocks, returned to the contest as a solo artist, finishing in second place. In2003 ,Jostein Hasselgård came fourth.
Norway won for the third time in2009 , withAlexander Rybak and his song "Fairytale ". The song's score of 387 points was the highest ever winning total under the 1975-2015 voting system, and also achieved the biggest ever margin of victory: 492 points in total were distributed between the competing countries in 2009, meaning "Fairytale" received 78.7% of the points that could be rewarded. Rybak later returned to the contest in2018 , performing "That's How You Write a Song "; he received the highest number of votes of the second semi-final, but ultimately placed fifteenth. He remains the only Norwegian entrant to have won a semi-final, as well as the only two-time semi-final winner in the history of the contest.
In2024 , Norway finished last in the final for the twelfth time. Norway has the dubious distinction of finishing last in the Eurovision final more than any other country, and along withAustria , has received "nul points " (zero points) in the contest on four occasions; in1963 ,1978 ,1981 and1997 .
