Poland in the Eurovision Song Contest


Poland has participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 22 times since its debut in 1994. Poland's debut in the contest remains its most successful entry, with Edyta Górniak finishing second, and achieving the country's only top 5 placing to date.

The country reached the top ten for the second time with Ich Troje finishing seventh in 2003. Poland then failed to qualify from the semi-finals in six out of seven years between 2005 and 2011, before withdrawing from the contest in 2012 and 2013.

Since returning in 2014, Poland had qualified for the final between 2014 and 2017 consecutively, and achieving a third top ten finish in 2016, with Michał Szpak finishing eighth. Since 2018 the country has failed to qualify to the final.
