RTVA, the Andorran national broadcaster has confirmed to ESCToday that Andorra will not return to the Eurovision Song Contest next year in Stockholm.

The landlocked country will not participate at the 2016  Eurovision Song Contest in Stockholm and thus joins Monaco in the list of countries that will not participate in the competition next year.

Andorra debuted at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2004 and has never qualified to the grand final. Andorra withdrew from the Eurovision Song Contest  in 2010 and has not returned since.

The last time we saw Andorra on the Eurovision stage was in 2009 when Susanne Georgi flew the Andorran flag in Moscow with her entry La teva decisio.

The 2016 Eurovision Song Contest is scheduled to be held on 10, 12 and 14 of May at the Globe Arena in Stockholm, Sweden.
