Representing your country at an international event is political. The reason for the contest's existence, bringing people together through music, is political. Eurovision, like everything else in life, is political. The only way it can be non-political is if it doesn't exist.
We're back and better than ever!
You take that back right now!
THEY'RE WEARING THE CURLING TROUSERS!!! #WinterOlympics2026 #MilanoCortinaOlympics2026
Those that claim we should boycott Eurovision but not boycott the Nations League have a whiff of homophobia and exceptionalism about them. Opposition to genocide doesn’t stop where our comfort begins
It was never a good idea in the first place tbh.
Sign of a good musical rehearsal: Everyone bursts into "Hit Me Baby One More Time" at the end of it.
Let's go Team Ireland! Cuir bród orainn ar fad! 🇮🇪🇮🇪 #WinterOlympics #MilanoCortina2026
LAURA PAUSINI 😍😍😍 #WinterOlympics #MilanoCortina2026
Today was the end of an era. Ina, you were the boss in every sense of the word, the most gifted painter, writer and storyteller, the inventor of great turns of phrase and the best grandmother I could ask for. I promise to always stay with my friends.
Slán leat, a Uachtarán.
Thank you all for the birthday wishes! Glad to have made another trip around the sun and to now have as many years as Ireland had counties.
I went to the Algarve many times with my family over the years and I always thought that it was strikingly similar to my county, especially the climate of course!
Watching #SelecțiaNațională was like seeing what Eurovision should and could stand for, people coming together to have a good time and not having to be filled with existential dread about a certain country ruining it for their own benefit.
That year off has already done Moldova the world of good. This is like a completely different broadcaster! #SelecțiaNatională2026
Exciting and all none of the Brits will live up to Paudie. #TheTraitors
Thank you 2025 for showing me that there are things worth sticking around for. I believe in the future again. Here's to a 2026 full of adventure and happiness.
Athbhliain faoi mhaise daoibh go léir!
Saudade, saudade, it never truly goes away. I miss you, granddad. #ESC250
Lejla, my all-time favourite Eurovision song. Still as magical as the first time I heard it. #ESC250
France should have won in 1991. Fight me, Sweden. #ESC250
And that's my second song on the list. 🇱🇻 #ESC250
Once again, Telemóveis was ahead of its time and was robbed. #ESC250
Ireland has finally entered the chat! 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪 #ESC250
First song on my list! Páll Óskar forever! 🇮🇸 #ESC250
I once heard "The Wrong Place" while in the baggage reclaim in Brussels Airport. Not really the song you want to hear while waiting for your luggage. #ESC250
If "Looking Back" hadn't won UMK 2020, we may never have gotten "Ich komme" and Erika's rightful moment in the spotlight. #ESC250
The end of the year wouldn't be the same without it. Let's see what #ESC250 has in store this year!
A day full of warmth, a night of light and a present that is a bit on the nose. Nollaig Shona daoibh go léir!
Just because I haven't seen anyone mention any books in Irish, the entire 'Inis Seo Dom' series. They're really well written and illustrated and they help kids find out more about the world around them.
