The market will resolve to the total number of countries that participate in Eurovision 2026
Background
Eurovision director Martin Green said an estimated 35 countries would take part in 2026. However, Iceland, Ireland, the Netherlands, Slovenia, and Spain are boycotting in protest against the inclusion of Israel in the context of the Gaza war, marking the largest boycott in the contest's history, while Bulgaria, Moldova, and Romania are returning after absences from recent editions. To date, broadcasters from thirty-four countries have provisionally confirmed their intention to participate in the contest.
