The next few days we look at Andorra, which took part in the Eurovision Song Contest 6 times, debuting in the 2004 contest and participating every year thereafter until the 2009 contest. The Andorran participating broadcaster in the contest is Ràdio i Televisió d’Andorra (RTVA). To date, Andorra remains the only nation to have never competed in a final. Andorra withdrew from the contest following its 2009 appearance, with RTVA citing financial difficulties as the reason for its withdrawal.
In 2007 Andorra was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest with the song Salvem El Món which was written and performed by young Andorran punk-rock band Anonymous, consisting of band members: Guillem Gallego, Niki Francesca, and Alejandro Martínez. Andorra finished in 12th place in the semi final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2007.
