Croatia in Eurovision
Croatia debuted at the Eurovision Song Contest in 1993 with the six member group Put and their entry Don’t ever cry, and is yet to win the event. The Balkan country’s best results in the competition were achieved in 2024 when Baby Lasagna represented Croatia at the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmo with his epic hit ‘Rim Tim Tagi Dim‘ placing 2nd in the Grand Final.
The country has competed 30 times in the contest and has not been very lucky in the competition in recent years, with its last top 10 finish in 2024.
In 2025 Croatia was represented by Marko Bosnjak with his entry ‘Poison Cake’.
