		Running since 1956, the Eurovision Song Contest (in French: Concours Eurovision de la Chanson) is an annual televised song contest with participants from numerous countries whose national television broadcasters are members of the European Broadcasting Union.
		Up until 2003 entry to the Eurovision song contest also required the country to have performed with a reasonable amount of success for the previous few years.
		Hosting the Eurovision Song Contest is an honour accorded to the winners of the previous year -- although it means that the winner's home broadcaster actually incurs heavy expenses as a result of winning and this has led to suggestions that some nations deliberately choose substandard acts so as to ensure they do not win.
