Croatia at Eurovision: looking for the first win

Croatia has been part of the Eurovision Song Contest since 1993 but is still chasing its first victory. However, hope is high after the country’s best-ever result in 2024 when Baby Lasagna finished second with the fan-favorite entry Rim Tim Tagi Dim.

With expectations rising and a highly competitive lineup, Dora 2026 promises to be one of Croatia’s most exciting national finals in recent years.

The question now is: who will fly the Croatian flag in Vienna?

Don’t forget to listen to last year’s entry, Poison Cake, and decide for yourself what went wrong or what went right.
