The 2024 Eurovision Song Contest looks set to welcome entrants from the Caribbean to the stage.

In a post on the official Eurovision Instagram page, organisers said they were “thrilled to confirm that the Caribbean is coming to the Eurovision Song Contest 2024”.

While it’s yet to be confirmed in which capacity the Caribbean will appear, it wouldn’t be the first time a non-European country has taken part in Eurovision.  

To date, Israel (since 1973), Morocco (since 1980), Cyprus (since 1981), Armenia (since 2006) and Australia (since 2016) have all participated. 

Organisers were recently met with backlash for allowing Israel to compete in next year’s competition, with The Times Of Israel reporting that The Association of Composers and Lyricists in Iceland called for the country not to participate unless Israel is barred.

However, in a statement the European Broadcasting Union said Contest insisted there were no plans to disqualify Israel, adding: “The Eurovision Song Contest is a competition for public broadcasters from all over Europe and the Middle East. It is a Contest for broadcasters – not for governments – and the Israeli public broadcaster has been participating in the Contest for 50 years.

“The EBU is a member-led organisation. The EBU’s governing bodies – led by the Board of Directors – represent the members. These bodies assessed the list of participants and decided that the Israeli public broadcaster complies with all competition rules. Together with 36 other broadcasters, it will be able to participate in the competition next year.”
