The Eurovision Late Late Show Special is back in 2022 🇮🇪

Broadcaster RTÉ has announced that Ireland’s 2022 entry will be selected on a special Eurovision edition of The Late Late Show.

RTE’s Head of Delegation Michael Kealy said:

I am very excited by the return of a Eurovision National Final on The Late Late Show and the prospect of giving the public a greater say in selecting our entry for Italy. Every year the Eurovision gets bigger and more competitive than ever and given the enormous exposure and huge financial rewards for the winner I’m hopeful that we will attract a very high calibre of songwriter and performer.

Songwriters and artists can submit their song on RTÉ's Eurovision website.
