RTL Luxembourg, the Luxembourgish national broadcaster, has pubished the eight competing songs for the upcoming Luxembourg Song Contest 2026.
The Luxembourg Song Contest 2025 will be held at the Rockhal in Esch-Belval on Saturday 24 January 2026. The show will be broadcast live on RTL Télé Lëtzebuerg and will be streamed live on rtl.lu, whilst French speakers will be able to follow the event on RTL infos and English speakers on RTL Today.
The 2026 Luxembourgish entry will be determined via combined international jury and public vote deliberation.
RTL Luxembourg’s press release reads:
Fresh from the mixing studios, the eight competing tracks will be unveiled on Thursday, 11 December across all RTL radio stations, including RTL Today Radio. From 9am, you can discover them on our RTL Today platforms, as well as on RTL.lu and RTL Infos, giving audiences access in three languages.
Starting at midnight on Friday, 12 December, the songs, along with the LSC 2026 playlists, will be available on music platforms such as Spotify, Deezer, Amazon Music, and Apple Music.
Collective stories
Collective writing sits at the heart of the 2026 edition: each track is the result of multi-author collaboration, sparked by international encounters that were both expected and surprising. Luxembourgish artists worked as co-authors, surrounded by songwriters and producers from across Europe, with a notable presence from Northern Europe, a region with a rich Eurovision tradition.
Luxembourg also keeps to its polyglot roots. Two songs are in French, the rest in English, with nods to languages close to the finalists, including Portuguese, French, and German.
Six songs from the Rocklab Songwriting Camp
This year’s line-up is the result of three years of creative work on Luxembourg’s Eurovision comeback: six of the eight entries were written in June at the ESC Songwriting Camp held at Rocklab. Part of Rockhal, Rocklab is a creative hub supporting Luxembourgish artists and producers.
Nearly 50 writers, composers, producers, and performers took part in a challenge that was simple, but demanding: teams of three or four had to write, record, and produce a full song in a single day. The next day, the teams changed and the process started again. Over four days in Belval, 28 songs were created.
Two more tracks, born from other artistic encounters, complete the selection.
The competing songs
A total of 8 acts will be battling for the golden ticket to Eurovision 2026 at the forthcoming Luxembourgish national final:
