Denmark in Eurovision Song Contest
After making its first appearance in the 1957 Eurovision Song Contest, Denmark went on to participate 48 times. Denmark has won the contest 3 times, first in 1964 with Danevise, then in 2000 with the Olsen Brothers’ Fly On The Wings Of Love, and the latest win in 2013 with Emmelie de Forest’s Only Teardrops. Denmark hosted the contest in 1964, 2001 and 2014. In 2020, Ben and Tan were selected to represent Denmark with the song Yes before the contest got cancelled.
