In our contest stories

Lines about Lithuania from our story of each contest. Follow a link for the rest of that night.

  • 1994 Out with seven, in with seven

    The newcomers were Estonia, Hungary, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Russia and Slovakia.

  • 1994 The result

    All finished in the bottom seven, and Lithuania's first entry did not score a point.

  • 2006 The result

    Bosnia and Herzegovina, in third, had its best result ever. So did Lithuania, sixth, with a song called "We Are the Winners".

  • 2010 What it cost

    Lithuania announced that it could not raise the 90,000 euros it needed, and was rescued by a Lithuanian company that put up the money.

  • 2014 Conchita

    During the voting Lithuania's spokesman announced that it was time for a shave and mimed one with a razor, just before reading out ten points for her.

Results as published by the European Broadcasting Union. “Not in the line-up” means no song from Lithuania was in that year’s contest, whatever the reason. Spotted a mistake? Tell us and we’ll fix it.
