Since the OGAE Denmark was founded in 1989 up to 2011, the number of members was at an average of 200. However since the past two Scandinavian wins over the past two years, the number of members drastically started to rise and is now at a record high.

According to dr.dk, the number of members has over quadrupled in size since 2011 with over a total of 900 members, making OGAE Denmark one of the world’s largest Eurovison fan club. The chairman of the OGAE Denmark Johann Sørensen has stated that; More exciting offers within the fan club has helped to increase the influx of new members, and then we of course can also not forget the Danish victory in 2013!
