Armenia has confirmed their intention to participate in the 2027 edition of the Eurovision Song Contest due to be held in Bulgaria. The Armenia broadcaster AMPTV announced the country will send an artist to the contest in May.
AMPTV confirms participation
The news was officially confirmed when AMPTV appeared on the confirmed list of participating broadcasters for Eurovision 2027.
No information has yet to be given regarding participation and the selection method of the artist and song. However, in recent years, AMPTV has opted for an internal selection to choose their act, only reverting to a national selection – Depi Evratesil – in 2025.
Armenia’s Eurovision journey
In 2006, Armenia made their debut into the Eurovision Song Contest, where André represented the nation with his entry “Without Your Love”, placing 8th overall. Since their debut, Armenia has participated 16 times, 13 of which saw them make the Grand Final. Their best result, in 2008 and 2014, was 4th place; in 2008, Sirusho and “Qélé Qélé”, and in 2014, Aram MP3 with “Not Alone”.
In 2026, SIMÓN represented Armenia with his song “Paloma Rumba”. He would fail to qualify for the final in Vienna, ultimately finishing in 14th place in the semi-final with 49 points. Of these, 30 came from the jury, whilst the remaining 19 came from the televote.
