Following the decision to withdraw from this year’s #Eurovision Song Contest in protest of Israel’s continued participation, Icelandic broadcaster #RÚV has announced that this year’s edition of its annual “Söngvakeppnin” national song contest is cancelled.
#Söngvakeppnin is RÚV’s biggest and most expensive outside broadcast operation each year, and the broadcaster has yet to decide what will replace it in the schedules.
