Eurovision 1994 · EurovisionSearch.com

A relegation system was introduced for the first time, barring the seven lowest-scoring countries from 1993 and enabling a record seven débuts (Estonia, Hungary, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Russia and Slovakia), while Italy’s withdrawal led to Cyprus being reinstated.
Poland narrowly avoided sanctions after Edyta Górniak sang part of her song in English during the jury-heard dress rehearsal, breaching language rules.
Ireland achieved an unprecedented third consecutive win and a record sixth overall, with a record 226 points—the first winner to surpass 200 and to win without the orchestra—while the interval act debuted “Riverdance.”
