Hence Estonia joins Austria, Germany Switzerland, Ireland, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, Finland and Denmark in the list of the countries that have confirmed their participation at next year’s Eurovision.
In 2014 Estonia selected its Eurovision representative via a national selection Eesti Laul. Tanja won the 2014 Estonian national final with her entry Amazing and flew the Estonian flag in Copenhagen. Despite a great performance, Estonia failed to qualify to the grand final.
