“Alice” for Veronica Fusaro
Veronica Fusaro was first revealed to be representing Switzerland back in January, with it already being revealed that her song would be released on March 11th. She has now released the song, and you can listen to it here!
There initially had been speculation that another track on Veronica’s album – “It’s All Gonna Be Okay” – was the song selected to represent Switzerland. However, this was proven to be untrue following the official song release on the official Eurovision Youtube channel.

Switzerland’s Eurovision journey
Switzerland both hosted and debuted in the inaugural Eurovision Song Contest in 1956. Their first participation was successful, as they won with Lys Assia’s “Refrain”. Since then, they have participated on 63 occasions, making the Grand Final 52 times.
Switzerland’s most recent participation saw them being represented on home soil by Zoë Më with her song “Voyage”. At the end of voting in the final, it was revealed Switzerland had earned 214 points from the juries, and receiving nothing from televoters. This ultimately placed Switzerland 10th in the final.
