Israel has been part of Eurovision since 1973, has won four times, and hosted the contest three times. Dana International was the first trans winner.

This year's artist, Yuval Raphael, was attending the Nova Sukkot festival on October 7th 2023.

Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Tunesia, Algeria, and Morocco are eligible to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest. They have been mostly boycotting it because of Israel's participation.
