The Netherlands will not take part in the 2027 Eurovision Song Contest, the NPO announced on Tuesday, saying there was insufficient support among public broadcasters. The College van Omroepen, which represents those broadcasters, welcomed the clarity and said it wanted to keep talking with the NPO about Eurovision’s future at Dutch public broadcasting.
