– Representing Switzerland at the ESC while we are hosting the contest is a huge honor and a surreal experience.
Zoë Më
Zoë Më, 24, is a singer-songwriter born in Basel, Switzerland. She began writing her own songs at the age of 10, and she is known for her unique blend of German and French lyrics and creating engaging "poetry-pop."
In 2024 Zoë Më was honored as SRF 3 Best Talent, a recognition previously awarded to artists like Nemo and Marius Bear. She has performed at esteemed events such as the Montreux Jazz Festival, Luzern Live, and has opened for artists like Remo Forrer and Joya Marleen on their tours.
To represent Switzerland in the city she was born is special for Zoë Më:
– I’m from Basel, and my grandparents live here. This is a full-circle moment, just like something out of a fairytale.
Switzerland in the Eurovision Song Contest
Switzerland has been a part of the Eurovision Song Contest 64 times since the beginning in 1956 - in Switzerland. And the winner of the very first Eurovision Song Contest was... Lys Assia from Switzerland with the song "Refrain."
Switzerland won the 1988 contest with a then-unknown girl, Céline Dion, with the song "Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi" (only ONE point in front of number two, the United Kingdom). A star was born!
Their latest victory was in Eurovision 2024 where Nemo won with "The Code."
Since the introduction of the Semi-finals in 2004, Switzerland has only managed to qualify for the Grand Final in 9 out of 20 tries. Switzerland is a proud member of "Club Null," with four contests without any points.
