Lithuania in the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 | |
Lithuania has been represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 26 times since its debut in 1994. The Lithuanian participating broadcaster in the contest is Lietuvos nacionalinis radijas ir televizija (LRT), which has been a member of the European Broadcasting Union since 1993.
The country achieved its best result in 2006, when "We Are the Winners" by LT United finished sixth. Its other top-ten results are a ninth-place finish with "I've Been Waiting for This Night" by Donny Montell in 2016 and an eighth-place finish with "Discoteque" by The Roop in 2021.
As of 2026, Lithuania is the only Baltic country that has not won the contest, following wins for Estonia in 2001 and Latvia in 2002. Since the introduction of semi-finals in 2004, Lithuania has qualified for the final 15 times.
Participation
[edit]Lietuvos nacionalinis radijas ir televizija (LRT) has been a full member of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) since 1 January 1993, making them eligible to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest since then. It has participated in the contest representing Lithuania since the 39th contest in 1994. LRT had previously considered to debut in the contest in 1993, however the planned entry failed to materialize.[1][2]
History
[edit]1990s
[edit]Lithuania debuted in the contest in 1994, however, its entry, "Lopšinė mylimai" performed by Ovidijus Vyšniauskas, finished last and received no points. LRT withdrew after its debut and did not return until 1999. Following a poor result in 1999, Lithuania was relegated from participating in the 2000 contest.
2000s
[edit]Lithuania returned in 2001 with "You Got Style" by Skamp, the first Lithuanian song to include English. They received 35 points, placing 13th. However, the following year, Aivaras could only manage to come second-to-last with 12 points.
Since the semi-finals were introduced, Lithuania again came last with Laura and the Lovers and "Little by Little". The following year, the Lithuanian broadcaster Lietuvos nacionalinis radijas ir televizija (LRT) sent LT United to the 2006 contest with the football chant-like song "We Are the Winners". They took Lithuania to the final for the first time since 2002, coming sixth in the final with 162 points, Lithuania's best placing as of 2026.
The following year, Lithuania automatically qualified for the final; however, 4Fun could not replicate LT United's success, coming 21st with only 28 points, 12 of which came from Ireland. In 2008, Jeronimas Milius failed to reach the final, coming 16th out of 19 competing nations in the second semi-final.
Lithuania initially threatened to boycott the 2009 contest "if Russia continues to showcase power and ignores international law." The statement was made in reaction to Russia's actions in the Russian invasion of Georgia in 2008.[3] Culture Minister Jonas Jučas stated that it was too early to discuss the boycott since "spontaneous decisions might aggravate the efforts of diplomats" and thus make the situation worse. They did eventually participate in the 2009 contest, where they qualified from the semi-finals and received 23 points in the final, placing them 23rd.[4]
2010s
[edit]LRT announced in December 2009 that, due to a lack of necessary funds, Lithuania would formally withdraw from the 2010 Contest. However, in the event that the necessary funds of 300,000 litas (€90,000) were found, the broadcaster announced that they would attempt to continue the country's participation.[5] Ultimately, private company TEO LT provided the necessary funding and Lithuania participated in Oslo.
In 2011, Lithuania was represented by Evelina Sašenko with the song "C'est ma vie". The song qualified from the first semi-final, placing 5th with 81 points. In the grand final, Lithuania finished in 19th place with 63 points.[6]
In 2012, Lithuania qualified for the final with Donny Montell and his song "Love Is Blind", placing 3rd with 104 points. They eventually finished 14th in the Grand Final.[7]
In 2013, Lithuania qualified for the final with "Something" by Andrius Pojavis, placing 9th in the first semi-final with 53 points. In the final, he finished in 22nd place with 17 points.[8]
In 2014, Vilija didn't qualify for the final, finishing 11th out of 15 entrants in the second semi-final, scoring 36 points.[9]
In 2015, Monika Linkytė and Vaidas Baumila represented Lithuania with the song "This Time". The duo qualified from the second semi-final, finishing 7th, and ultimately placed 18th in the grand final with 30 points.[10]
In 2016, Donny Montell returned to the contest and achieved Lithuania's best result of the decade, finishing ninth with "I've Been Waiting for This Night".[11]
In 2017, Lithuania was represented by Fusedmarc with the song "Rain of Revolution". The song failed to qualify for the grand final, finishing 17th in the second semi-final with 42 points.[12]
In 2018, Ieva Zasimauskaitė achieved Lithuania's fifth top 15 result, finishing 12th with "When We're Old".[13]
In 2019, Jurij Veklenko represented Lithuania with the song "Run with the Lions". He competed in the second semi-final, placing 11th with 93 points, which was not sufficient to advance to the grand final.[14]
2020s
[edit]Lithuania selected The Roop to represent the country at the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 with "On Fire", but the contest was cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[15] The group returned in 2021 with "Discoteque", qualifying in fourth from the first semi-final and finishing eighth in the final with 220 points. The result was Lithuania's second-best placing in the contest.[16][17][18]
In 2022, Monika Liu represented Lithuania with "Sentimentai". The song was performed in Lithuanian, marking the first Lithuanian-language entry for the country since its 1994 debut. It qualified for the final after placing seventh in the first semifinal and finished 14th overall with 128 points.[19] Monika Linkytė returned to the contest in 2023 with "Stay", placing 11th in the final with 127 points.[20]
Lithuania was represented in 2024 by Silvester Belt with "Luktelk", which was selected through Eurovizija.LT. The song qualified from the first semi-final in fourth place and finished 14th in the final.[21] In 2025, the alternative rock band Katarsis represented Lithuania with "Tavo akys". The entry qualified from the second semi-final and finished 16th in the final with 96 points.
In 2026, Lion Ceccah represented Lithuania with "Sólo quiero más". He was selected through Eurovizija.LT, after a national selection that included five weeks of semi-finals and 40 competing songs. The entry qualified from the first semi-final, becoming Lithuania's 6th consecutive qualifier, the longest qualification streak the country has had, and finished 22nd in the final with 22 points.

Notes
[edit]- ↑ According to the then-Eurovision rules, the top ten non-Big Four countries from the previous year along with the Big Four automatically qualified for the Grand Final without having to compete in semi-finals. For example, if Germany and France placed inside the top ten, the 11th and 12th spots were advanced to next year's Grand Final along with all countries ranked in the top ten.
- ↑ The 2020 contest was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
- ↑ Andrius Mamontovas was initially appointed to be the spokesperson of Lithuania in 2019, but was not able to perform the role because he was a member of the jury that year.[56] Mamontovas later announced Lithuania's points in 2021 contest.
