Since then, Belgium has participated 62 times. They have appeared in the Grand Final 52 times, and have won the competition once (1986).
Belgium’s most recent participation saw them being represented by Hooverphonic with the song “The Wrong Place”. They managed to qualify for the Grand Final once again.
