The team behind the decision noted they’re looking for “a clear focus on presenting the very best of contemporary British music to millions of viewers across Europe and beyond” for their next choice.
“We intend to be represented by an outstanding current British act, backed up by the very best songwriting and production talent the UK music industry has to offer,” May said.
“I saw first-hand in 2022 what one performance at Eurovision can do for an artist’s career. The opportunity is still very much there and it’s time the United Kingdom reached the top of the Eurovision scoreboard once again.”
Remember Monday and Olly Alexander, who represented the UK in 2025 and 2024 respectively, also ranked low on the scoreboard after they both received zero in the public vote, but were saved from the bottom by contest jury votes.
May and Cantrell will be working in line with the teams of BBC Music, BBC Introducing, BBC Studios Entertainment Production and BBC Entertainment Commissioning to pick both the song and act that will represent the United Kingdom at next year’s contest.
Last year, Dara took home the crystal microphone trophy with her track, Bangaranga.
Broadcast on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, as well as BBC Radio 2 and BBC Sounds, the contest will kick off on 11 May, with the Grand Final on Saturday, 15 May 2027.
