Canada's Eurovision 2027 debut now comes with an important musical detail. CBC/Radio-Canada has confirmed that the song performed by the winning act in Burgas will feature both English and French, while still leaving room for additional languages if appropriate.
What to know
- Canada's Eurovision 2027 song will include English and French.
- Other languages may also be possible.
- Artist applications close on 9 September 2026.
- The selected act will later develop the final song with industry professionals.
That means Canada's first Eurovision entry is being designed from the outset to reflect the country's two official languages. The broadcaster says the selected artist will be consulted on language comfort so the final song can be written accordingly.
The artist submission window remains open until 9 September 2026. After a shortlist is created, fans will be able to vote online, with the public result combined with an expert jury to determine the act.
The chosen performer will then work with industry professionals to create Canada's first Eurovision song. For Song Contest Radar, this is a meaningful update beyond the original launch story because it begins to define what the debut entry itself may sound like.
