Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Pp-extended Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox song contest national year Israel is set to participate in the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 in Malmö, Sweden, with "Hurricane" performed by Eden Golan. The Israeli broadcaster Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation (IPBC/Kan) selected its representative through the show Шаблон:Lang (Rising Star), in collaboration with commercial broadcaster Keshet and Tedy Productions, while the song was internally selected. The Israel–Hamas war impacted the production of the show and brought Israel's participation in the contest into question.[1]

Background

Шаблон:Main Prior to the 2024 contest, Israel has participated in the Eurovision Song Contest forty-five times since its first entry in Шаблон:Escyr.[2] Israel has won the contest on four occasions: in Шаблон:Esccnty with the song "Шаблон:Lang" performed by Izhar Cohen and the Alphabeta, in Шаблон:Esccnty with the song "Hallelujah" performed by Milk and Honey, in Шаблон:Esccnty with the song "Шаблон:Lang" performed by Dana International and in Шаблон:Esccnty with the song "Toy" performed by Netta Barzilai. Since the introduction of semi-finals in 2004, Israel has, to this point, managed to qualify to the final 12 times, achieving, besides its 2018 victory, four top ten results: in Шаблон:Esccnty with Shiri Maimon and "Шаблон:Lang" placing fourth, in Шаблон:Esccnty with Boaz and "The Fire in Your Eyes" placing ninth, in Шаблон:Esccnty with Nadav Guedj and "Golden Boy" placing ninth, and in Шаблон:Esccnty with Noa Kirel and "Unicorn" placing third.[2]

The Israeli national broadcaster, Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation (IPBC/Kan), has been in charge of the nation's participation in the contest since Шаблон:ESCYr. On 5 June 2023, Kan confirmed Israel's participation in the 2024 contest, announcing that the Israeli entrant would return to be selected through the reality singing competition Rising Star, which had been used between 2015 and 2020.[3]

Before Eurovision

HaKokhav HaBa

As was the case between 2015 and 2020, the singer who would perform the Israeli entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 was selected through the reality singing competition Шаблон:Lang, produced by Tedy Productions and Keshet Media Group, and broadcast on Keshet 12 as well as online via mako.co.il. The shows took place at the Шаблон:Ill in Neve Ilan, and were hosted by Assi Azar and Rotem Sela. The judging panel for the competition was composed of Assaf Amdursky, Keren Peles, Shiri Maimon (Шаблон:Esccnty), Ran Danker, Шаблон:Ill and Eden Hason.[4][5]

Preliminary casting rounds started in late July 2023[4][5] and ended on 10 September 2023 at Pavillion 2 of Expo Tel Aviv (Eurovision Song Contest 2019 venue), where candidates were judged based on an a cappella performance of two songs of their choice.[6][7]

Shows and impact of the Israel–Hamas war

Qualifiers from the preliminary casting phase proceeded to the auditions proper, held in Jerusalem and originally set to be filmed in the presence of an audience from late September or early October 2023 and to begin airing in November 2023.[4][5][8] However, following the outbreak of the Israel–Hamas war on 7 October 2023, filming for the competition was initially postponed in compliance with the Home Front Command's protection guidelines,[8][9] eventually beginning without an audience in the week between 16 and 22 October, with the broadcasts initially scheduled to start on 31 October.[10][11][12] The audience vote, which was set to determine 40% of the result alongside the judges, was replaced by the votes of a focus group.[10][12]

On 31 October 2023, when it was planned to air, the broadcast of the first episode was postponed in order to commemorate two soldiers who had been killed in combat earlier that day.[13][14] The decision to air the show in such circumstances was criticised by Israeli audiences and media,[15][16] and the broadcasts were ultimately rescheduled to start on 20 November.[17][18] The second show, scheduled for 22 November,[19] was postponed to make room for a governmental press conference regarding a deal negotiated that day for the release of hostages held by Hamas;[20] broadcasting resumed on 2 December.[21][22] Segments from the opening of the casting round of 10 September were included in the televised shows.[6][7]

The audition shows also included segments in support of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), and the very first contestant Shai Tamino, a member of the Education and Youth Corps band, performed wearing military fatigues;[17][19] this led some Eurovision fan media outlets to begin limiting their coverage of Israel's participation in the 2024 contest, on the grounds that it clashes with the non-political and pacifist values traditionally associated with the event.Шаблон:Efn

Shortlisting round

The following phase, aired in segments on 31 December 2023, consisted of a shortlisting round, where the artists receiving a "yes" vote from all six judges automatically qualified and the others were chosen among those who had received four or five "yes" votes. 14 artists were shortlisted, namely Lian Biran, Eden Golan, Arik Sinai, Yehuda Saado, Shai Tamino, Ido Bartal, Mika Moshe, Jonathan Bitton, Mika Kertis, Dor Shimon, Or Cohen, Gal Kafri, Moria Angel and Orel Ravid.[31]

Top 14 round

In the top 14 round, the votes of the judges and an audience determined one contestant to be eliminated from each show, ultimately coming down to the top five. In each of the first two shows and in the sixth show, the artist to be eliminated was the one getting the lowest overall score. In the third, fourth, seventh and ninth show, the artists were paired in duels, with the winners directly qualifying to the next round; the judges then selected one eliminee per show among the others. In the fifth show, the artists were coupled to perform duets, with the eliminee selected between the lowest scoring duo. In the eighth show, each contestant performed a duet with a surprise guest artist.

The final took place on 6 February 2024 and was divided in a duel round, eliminating one finalist, and a superfinal among the remaining three artists, determing the winner. On 5 February, a special broadcast was aired featuring performances by guest artists and the finalists, each of whom announced which song they would perform in the first round of the final; a public vote, held via the Mako app and determining 10% of the results of the first round, was opened on the same day.[43] Noa Kirel made a guest performance during the show. In the superfinal, a 50/50 combination of jury and public votes selected Eden Golan as the winner.[44]

Song selection

The song that Eden Golan will perform in the contest was internally selected by a professional committee. On 16 January 2024, Kan and Keshet opened a window for specially selected songwriters to submit their entries until 11 February; submissions were required to include lyrics in Hebrew.[45][46] Golan also had the option to submit her own entry.[44] The selected entry, titled "Hurricane", was revealed on 10 March during a special broadcast on Kan 11, aired from the Yitzhak Rabin Center in Tel Aviv and hosted by Lior Suchard.[47][48][49]

Controversy

On 19 February 2024, a report by Шаблон:Lang claimed that the proposed entry for the contest was being written by Шаблон:Ill, Keren Peles, and Stav Beger, with it most likely being titled "October Rain".[50] On 21 February, a report by Ynet claimed that the EBU had rejected the entry on the grounds of political content in its lyrics, but that Kan was not planning to change the song or its content.[51] Kan and the EBU later addressed this report, stating that the song was being examined, and that if it does not meet the criteria, Kan would be given the opportunity to alter the lyrics or submit a new entry by 11 March.[52][53] However, Kan added that if it was asked to change the contents of the song, it would not do so, and be forced to withdraw from the contest. Miki Zohar, Culture and Sports Minister of Israel, called the intention of the EBU to reject the song "scandalous", and "called on the European Broadcasting Union to continue to act professionally and neutrally and not to let politics influence art";[54] he later expressed his support for the song to be altered in order to meet the criteria for the contest.[55]

On 22 February 2024, Kan published the lyrics of "October Rain".[56] Earlier that day, leaks by Шаблон:Lang and Ynet described the song as a ballad that builds up to a climax, referencing "the condition of Israeli civilians" in the 7 October attack and also alluding to the Re'im music festival massacre.[57][58] On 28 February, Ynet reported that the song that finished second in the internal selection, "Dance Forever", written by Golan alongside Шаблон:Ill, May Sfadia, and Yinon Yahel, had also been rejected by the EBU,[59] On 3 March, Kan officially confirmed that it had submitted both "October Rain" and "Dance Forever" to the EBU for consideration, and that both had been rejected by the EBU in their current state. Despite previous statements, Kan ultimately asked the writers of both songs to "make the necessary adjustments" in order for them to be eligible,[47] and announced that the final intended entry, "Hurricane" (reported to be a revision of "October Rain" with changed lyrics), had been recorded later that day.[48][60] However, the song's writers were reportedly asked to rewrite its lyrics again,[61] and the final version was submitted two days later.[49] The EBU gave its approval for the song on 7 March.[62]

Calls for exclusion

Шаблон:Further Шаблон:See also The ongoing humanitarian crisis resulting from Israeli military operations in the Gaza Strip led to calls for the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) to exclude Israel from taking part in the 2024 contest, with human rights activists urging other countries to boycott the event.[63][64] Despite this, Israel ultimately appeared on the list of participants released by the EBU on 5 December 2023.[65] On 8 December, the EBU issued a statement maintaining that Kan "complies with all competition rules", allowing it to participate in 2024.[66][67] The situation has sparked controversy in a number of participating countries:

  • Шаблон:AnchorШаблон:EsccntyШаблон:SndOn 9 December 2023, Шаблон:Ill, the radio director of Icelandic broadcaster RÚV, stated that the country would still participate in the 2024 contest.[81] In response, the Association of Composers and Lyricists of Iceland (FTT) and activists of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement sent formal requests that RÚV withdraw from the event unless Israel is excluded "on the same grounds as Russia in the last competition", stressing on human rights violations on the Israeli part;[82][83][84] the Icelandic branch of OGAE joined the calls.[85] RÚV then chose to hold its national competition, Шаблон:Lang 2024, as usual, and then let the winner decide whether to participate in Eurovision.[86][87] Eventual Шаблон:Lang winner Hera Björk stated that she would participate in Eurovision prior to the final.[88] RÚV confirmed on 11 March that it would participate, with Hera Björk as its representative.[89]
  • Шаблон:AnchorШаблон:EsccntyШаблон:SndBy mid-December 2023, Irish broadcaster RTÉ had received over 465 emails similarly urging it to boycott the event if Israel is permitted to compete, accusing the Israeli government of using it to portray the country in a positive light "despite the years of occupation and violence against Palestine"; RTÉ responded by stating that it had always approached the event as "a non-political contest designed to unite audiences and bring people together", arguing that no other broadcaster had expressed the intention to boycott it.[90] On 25 December, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar stated his opposition to the calls.[91] In mid-January 2024, he was followed by Michael Kealy, the head of the Irish delegation for the contest, who maintained that Kan, as a broadcaster independent from the Israeli government, should not be barred from competing; he stated that he would "go along" with any decision the EBU would make.[92]
  • Шаблон:AnchorШаблон:EsccntyШаблон:SndOn 19 December 2023, Finnish broadcaster Yle's head of creative content and media Шаблон:Ill stated that the broadcaster had discussed the Israel–Hamas war situation with other Nordic broadcasters and monitored the EBU's stance, while also commenting that the war is not comparable to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[93] The following day, Yle posted through the Instagram account of its Eurovision national final Шаблон:Lang (UMK) that, while UMK would be held regardless of Finland's participation in Eurovision, the broadcaster was "closely following the situation in the Middle East" and holding discussions with the EBU and other Nordic broadcasters.[94][95] In January 2024, a petition was signed by Finnish music industry professionals demanding the broadcaster to withdraw or pressure for Israel to be excluded, arguing that the country might use the contest as a platform to "polish its image" from human rights violations it commits;[96][97] later that month, Yle stated that it would not oppose Israel's participation for the time being.[98]
  • Шаблон:AnchorШаблон:EsccntyШаблон:SndOpposing earlier declarations by Шаблон:Ill, head of communications of Spanish broadcaster RTVE, that it would follow the EBU's stance,[99] on 1 February 2024, Spanish left-wing party Шаблон:Lang submitted a proposal to the Congress of Deputies in order for the government and RTVE to lobby against the inclusion of Israel in the contest and urge other countries to do the same;[100][101] contextually, a petition was promoted within RTVE by Roberto Lakidain, representative of Шаблон:Lang in the broadcaster's board of directors, requesting that Spain withdraw from the event.[102]
  • Шаблон:AnchorШаблон:EsccntyШаблон:SndFollowing public calls in the country for the exclusion of Israel, on 7 February 2024, Slovenian broadcaster RTVSLO asked the EBU to hold extensive discussions with its member broadcasters regarding Israeli participation.[103][104] Шаблон:As of no response from the union has been received.[105]
  • Шаблон:AnchorШаблон:EsccntyШаблон:SndIn early March 2024, interrogated by Шаблон:Ill, group leader of the Workers' Party of Belgium at the Parliament of Wallonia, Walloon minister of culture and media Шаблон:Ill announced that she would formally request local broadcaster RTBF (responsible for Belgium's participation in 2024) to push for the exclusion of Israel from the contest, citing the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the exclusion of Russia in 2022; her Flemish counterpart Benjamin Dalle expressed support for the reasoning.[106]

Petitions and letters requesting the EBU to exclude Israel have also been signed by several former Eurovision entrants or intended entrants, including Ágústa Eva Erlendsdóttir (Шаблон:Esccnty as Silvía Night), Malena Ernman (Шаблон:Esccnty), Eric Saade (Шаблон:Esccnty), Hatari (Шаблон:Esccnty), Ben Dolic (Шаблон:Esccnty), Montaigne (Шаблон:Esccnty and Шаблон:Esccnty) and La Zarra (Шаблон:Esccnty).Шаблон:Efn A letter advocating for Israel's continued inclusion was proposed by the Creative Community for Peace organisation; among the over 400 signatories to the letter are Scooter Braun, Harvey Mason Jr. and Helen Mirren.[107][108]

Historical precedence

At Eurovision

The Eurovision Song Contest 2024 will take place at the Malmö Arena in Malmö, Sweden, and consist of two semi-finals held on the respective dates of 7 and 9 May and the final on 11 May 2024. All nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Five" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final will progress to the final. On 30 January 2024, an allocation draw was held to determine which of the two semi-finals, as well as which half of the show, each country will perform in; the EBU split up the competing countries into different pots based on voting patterns from previous contests, with countries with favourable voting histories put into the same pot.[111] At the request of Kan, Israel was allocated to the second semi-final as the rehearsal date for the first one coincides with Шаблон:Lang;[112] the country was drawn to perform in the second half of the show.[113]

In Israel, commentary for the shows will be provided by Шаблон:Ill, Шаблон:Ill and Шаблон:Ill.[114][115]
