Belgium has been represented at theEurovision Song Contest 66 times since making its debut as one of seven countries at the first contest in1956 . The only countries with more appearances areGermany (68),France (67) and theUnited Kingdom (67). Belgium has been absent only three times in total, in1994 ,1997 , and2001 , due to low scores in the previous contests that relegated them from the contest. Belgium has won the contest once, in1986 .
In the first 20 years of the contest, Belgium's best result was a fourth place with "Un peu de poivre, un peu de sel Tonia in1966 . In1978 , "L'amour ça fait chanter la vie Jean Vallée achieved Belgium's first top three placement, when it was second. "J'aime la vie Sandra Kim . Belgium's only other top three result came in2003 , when "Sanomi " byUrban Trad finished second, losing out by only two points. Belgium has finished last in the contest eight times, most recently in2000 , and has twice receivednul points 1962 and1965 .
After the introduction of the semi-finals in2004 , Belgium failed to reach the final for five consecutive years (2005–09). Since 2010, Belgium has become more successful, qualifying for the final in eight out of fifteen contests and placing in the top ten five times, with "Me and My Guitar " byTom Dice (sixth in2010 ), "Rhythm Inside " byLoïc Nottet (fourth in2015 ), "What's the Pressure " byLaura Tesoro (tenth in2016 ), "City Lights " byBlanche (fourth in2017 ), and "Because of You " byGustaph (seventh in2023 ).
Belgium is a federal country divided into two major linguistic regions: Dutch-speakingFlanders in the north and French-speakingWallonia in the south, each region having its own broadcaster:Vlaamse Radio- en Televisieomroeporganisatie [ b] Radio-télévision belge de la Communauté française [ c] European Broadcasting Union (EBU), thus eligible to participate in theEurovision Song Contest . As only one entrant per country is allowed in the contest in any given year, they take turns in participate representing Belgium. Since 2021, VRT has been in charge on odd years while RTBF has been in charge on even years, with both broadcasters sharing the broadcasting rights.
Belgium has participated in Eurovision since the very first contest in1956 , howeverTonia 's fourth place at the1966 contest remained the country's most notable achievement untilJean Vallée placed second in1978 . In the 80s, following good results forStella (fourth in1982 ) andJacques Zegers (fifth in1984 ), Belgium finished last for the sixth time in1985 . This was followed by Belgium's first and (as of 2025[update] 1986 , whenSandra Kim won with her song "J'aime la vie ". Although the lyrics claimed she was 15 years old, she was actually only 13 which prompted runner-up Switzerland to petition for her disqualification, to no avail.[ d] [update]
Belgium finished last for the seventh time at the1993 contest, before achieving its only top ten result of the 90s decade at the1998 contest, whereMélanie Cohl finished sixth. In the 2000s, Belgium experienced mixed fortunes: the country started the decade by finishing last for the eighth and (as of 2022[update] 2000 contest inStockholm , before achieving its best result of the 21st century in2003 whenUrban Trad sang in an imaginary language and earned second place with 165 points, losing out to Turkey'sSertab Erener by just two points. The country then failed to qualify from the semi-finals for 5 consecutive contests from 2005 to 2009.
The2010 entry for Belgium wasTom Dice , runner-up of theBelgian Flemish version ofThe X Factor 1959 ).[ 1] Roberto Bellarosa placing 12th) before scoring a three-year streak in the top ten, thanks toLoïc Nottet (fourth in2015 ),Laura Tesoro (tenth in2016 ) andBlanche (fourth in2017 ). Following two non-qualifications in 2018 and 2019, Belgium recorded three consecutive qualifications withHooverphonic (2021 ),Jérémie Makiese (2022 ) andGustaph (2023 ), the latter finishing in seventh place overall. Two more non-qualifications followed in 2024 and 2025.
Disparity between broadcasters [ edit ] There has been a significant difference in the results achieved by the Belgian participating broadcasters.[ 2] 1986 , all of Belgium's ten top-five placements, and 18 out of Belgium's 26 top ten placements. On the other hand, the Flemish broadcasters have placed in the top ten eight times, while scoring six out of Belgium's eight last-place finishes.[ 2] relegation rule was introduced, where the lowest-placing countries would not be allowed to compete the following year, to accommodate for the growing number of participating countries. Belgium was relegated three times, in1994 ,1997 , and2001 ; twice following a poor placing by a Flemish BRTN act the previous year, and once after Walloon RTBF act, "Envie de vivre Nathalie Sorce , placed last in 2000.[ 2]
Since the introduction of semi-finals in 2004, the broadcasters have scored similarly in terms of qualification: as of 2025[update] [ 3]

Related involvement [ edit ] Commentators and spokespersons [ edit ] Over the years, commentary for the contest on VRT and RTBF has been provided by several experienced radio and television presenters, including Piet de Nuyl Jr.,Jacques Mercier ,Luc Appermont andPaule Herreman . From 1991,André Vermeulen provided the Dutch-language commentary every year except 1996.Jean-Pierre Hautier provided French-language commentary from 1994 to 2012, later dying shortly after the 2012 contest. In 1962, BRT retransmitted the commentary feed from the Dutch broadcasterNTS , possibly for financial reasons.
VRT supplied an additional commentator to join André Vermeulen starting in 1998; between 1999 and 2010, dual commentary was provided by eitherBart Peeters orAnja Daems . Peeters provided the commentary during the years when VRT selected the entries, whilst Daems commentated the years in which RTBF selected the entries. Sven Pichal replaced Daems in 2011, whilstPeter Van de Veire replaced Peeters. In 2007, Jean-Louis Lahaye joinedJean-Pierre Hautier as a supplementary commentator for RTBF. After Hautier's death in 2012, Lahaye was joined byMaureen Louys in 2013.
