This weekend, Catalonia will vote in a regional election to vote for their new president. El Pais, one of Spain's leading tabloids, reports there's a chance we could see Catalonia participate in Eurovision if they ever do get independence. Two pro-independence parties are aiming to make this happen if they get elected. Televisió de Catalunya (TV3) is the biggest broadcaster in the region and to enter Eurovision, they would have to join the ITU and then apply for EBU membership. Could it happen? In 2004, the Andorran broadcaster and Catalonia jointly produced Andorra's entry and viewers in Catalonia had a 50% say in the results. Andorra always performed in Catalan and Catalonia's participation could entice them back. Maybe. I wonder how this one will pan out...
