Ireland has participated in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest eight times since their first appearance at the 2015 contest. Irish-language broadcaster TG4 has been responsible for the country's participation in the contest, and organises a televised national final Junior Eurovision Éire to select the Irish entries. TG4 did not participate in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but returned to the contest in 2021.[1]
Since their debut, Ireland has placed in the top 10 twice: in 2016 when the song "Bríce ar bhríce" performed by Zena Donnelly placed 10th out of 17 participating countries, and in 2022 when "Solas" by Sophie Lennon placed 4th out of 16 participants.[2]
