It is time for the OGAE Song Contest 2024!
Every year, the OGAE fan clubs host a number of song competitions: The OGAE Second Chance Contest (a battle between songs that competed in national selections but weren't chosen by their countries) and the OGAE Song Contest.
For those not familiar, the OGAE International Network (French: Organisation Générale des Amateurs de l'Eurovision, English: General Organization of Eurovision Fans) is the network of official Eurovision fan clubs.
The OGAE Song Contest sees national clubs enter an original song from their nation released in the previous 12 months and sung in one of the country's official languages.
This year will be hosted by OGAE United Kingdom following their 2023 win with As It Was by Harry Styles.
Australia has previously won the contest twice with Tones and I taking out the 2021 competition with Fly Away. Dami Im won the 2017 edition with Fighting for Love.
OGAE Australia club members chose Troye Sivan's Rush as their entry.
