Statement on AVROTROS participation deadline for Eurovision Song Contest 2025

The EBU is pleased with the constructive dialogue with AVROTROS about their participation in the Eurovision Song Contest next year.

We confirm we have granted them an extension to the application deadline until 1 November.

We very much hope to see AVROTROS compete in Basel next May and expect to publish the full list of participating broadcasters for the 69th Eurovision Song Contest by the end of this year.
