- Notable for a revamped jury system—each country awarded 3, 2 and 1 points to its top three songs, with ten-member “average viewer/listener” juries excluding music-industry figures—the 1962 contest produced a one-sided scoreboard and, for the first time, nul points: Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands and Spain all finished on zero.
- The live broadcast was disrupted by two power failures, including a 30-second blackout during the Netherlands’ performance and a 90-second darkness after France’s song.
- France secured a record third victory.
