France was one of seven countries to participate in the first Eurovision Song Contest in 1956. Since then, they have participated in every contest except 1974 and 1982. Their withdrawal in 1974 was caused by the death of President Georges Pompidou, while their withdrawal in 1982 was a result of TF1 declining to enter the contest. France has won the contest on five occasions, most recently in 1977, when Marie Myriam performed “L’oiseau et l’enfant”. France’s best result of the 21st century came in 2021, when Barbara Pravi finished second in Rotterdam with “Voilà”.
