The Eurovision Song Contest 1995 was the 40th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest, held on 13 May 1995 at the Point Theatre in Dublin, Ireland. Organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster {{lang|ga|Radio Telefís Éireann|i=unset}} (RTÉ), and presented by Mary Kennedy, the contest was held in Ireland following the country's victory at the {{escyr|1994||1994 contest}} with the song "Rock 'n' Roll Kids" by Paul Harrington and Charlie McGettigan. It was the third consecutive contest to be held in Ireland – the first and only time in the history of the event that a country has hosted three editions in a row – and the second consecutive edition to be held in the Point Theatre in Dublin.
Twenty-three countries participated in the contest; {{esccnty|Estonia}}, {{esccnty|Finland}}, {{esccnty|Lithuania}}, the {{esccnty|Netherlands}}, {{esccnty|Romania}}, {{esccnty|Slovakia}}, and {{esccnty|Switzerland}} were relegated as the lowest-scoring countries in the previous edition, getting replaced by {{esccnty|Belgium}}, {{esccnty|Denmark}}, {{esccnty|Israel}}, {{esccnty|Slovenia}}, and {{esccnty|Turkey}}, returning after being relegated following the {{escyr|1993||1993 edition}}.
The winner was {{esccnty|Norway|y=1995}} with the song "{{lang|no|Nocturne|i=unset}}", composed by Rolf Løvland, written by Petter Skavlan and performed by Secret Garden. {{esccnty|Spain|y=1995}}, {{esccnty|Sweden|y=1995}}, {{esccnty|France|y=1995}}, and {{esccnty|Denmark|y=1995}} rounded out the top five, with Spain achieving their best result since {{esccnty|Spain|y=1979|t=1979}}. {{esccnty|Croatia|y=1995}} and {{esccnty|Slovenia|y=1995}} also achieved their best results so far, placing sixth and seventh respectively, while {{esccnty|Germany|y=1995}} finished in last place for the fourth time.

The 1995 contest took place in Dublin, Ireland, following the country's victory at the {{escyr|1994||1994 edition}} with the song "Rock 'n' Roll Kids", performed by Paul Harrington and Charlie McGettigan. It was the sixth time that Ireland had hosted the contest, having previously staged the event in {{escyr|1971}}, {{escyr|1981}}, {{escyr|1988}}, {{escyr|1993}} and {{escyr|1994}}, with all previous events held in Dublin except the 1993 contest which was held in Millstreet.{{cite web |title=Ireland – Participation history |url=https://eurovision.tv/country/ireland |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=29 June 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220621202349/https://eurovision.tv/country/ireland |archive-date=21 June 2022 |url-status=live}} Ireland thus became the first, and {{as of|2024|lc=yes}} only country to have hosted three successive contests.{{cite web |title=Dublin 1995 |url=https://eurovision.tv/event/dublin-1995 |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=2 November 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221015182302/https://eurovision.tv/event/dublin-1995 |archive-date=15 October 2022 |url-status=live}}{{cite web |title=Eurovision Archives |url=https://eurovision.tv/history |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=2 November 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221024215252/https://eurovision.tv/history |archive-date=24 October 2022 |url-status=live}}
The selected venue was the Point Theatre, a concert and events venue located amongst the Dublin Docklands which had originally been built as a train depot to serve the nearby port. Opened as a music venue in 1988, it was closed for redevelopment and expansion in 2008 and is now known as the 3Arena.{{cite web |title=3Arena Dublin – About, History & Hotels Near |url=https://www.ocallaghancollection.com/cities/things-to-do-in-dublin/three-arena/ |publisher=O'Callaghan Collection |access-date=2 November 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210724010616/https://www.ocallaghancollection.com/cities/things-to-do-in-dublin/three-arena/ |archive-date=24 July 2021 |url-status=live}} Having previously hosted the 1994 contest, Dublin became the first city to host two consecutive Eurovision Song Contests, with the Point Theatre also serving as the host venue for the second year in a row.{{sfn|O'Connor|2010|pp=140–143}}
Alternative venues in Galway and Limerick were considered by RTÉ, however Dublin was chosen to stage the contest again as it was judged to have been the more cost-effective location.{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|pp=210–212}} A proposal by the British broadcaster BBC to host the contest, either by themselves or as a joint production hosted in Belfast, the capital city of Northern Ireland, were also rejected by RTÉ as the Irish broadcaster chose to produce the contest on its own.{{sfn|O'Connor|2010|pp=140–143}}{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|pp=210–212}} However, RTÉ did request a rule change to relieve them of the responsibility of producing the contest again should Ireland produce a fourth consecutive winner, which was accepted by the EBU.{{sfn|O'Connor|2010|pp=140–143}}

Twenty-three countries were permitted to participate in the contest, which was to comprise the sixteen highest-scoring countries in the 1994 contest and returning countries that had been relegated and prevented from participating in the previous year's event. The total line-up was reduced from the twenty-five countries which participated in the 1994 contest to ensure that the event would not last longer than three hours.{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|pp=210–212}} Of the seven countries which did not participate in 1994, {{esccnty|Belgium}}, {{esccnty|Denmark}}, {{esccnty|Israel}}, {{esccnty|Slovenia}}, and {{esccnty|Turkey}} returned to the contest, while {{esccnty|Italy}} and {{esccnty|Luxembourg}} declined the invitation, which resulted in {{esccnty|Austria}} and {{esccnty|Spain}}, which were originally relegated, being allowed back into the line-up. {{esccnty|Estonia}}, {{esccnty|Finland}}, {{esccnty|Lithuania}}, the {{esccnty|Netherlands}}, {{esccnty|Romania}}, {{esccnty|Slovakia}}, and {{esccnty|Switzerland}}, as the lowest-scoring countries from the previous year's event, were thus ultimately relegated and were required to miss this event.{{sfn|O'Connor|2010|pp=140–143}}{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|pp=210–212}} Switzerland did not participate in the contest for the first time, leaving {{esccnty|Germany}} as the sole country to have participated in every edition of the contest to that point.{{sfn|O'Connor|2010|pp=140–143}}{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|pp=210–212}}

Production and format
The Eurovision Song Contest 1995 was produced by the Irish public broadcaster {{lang|ga|Radio Telefís Éireann|i=unset}} (RTÉ). John McHugh served as executive producer, John Comiskey served as director, Alan Farquharson served as designer, and Noel Kelehan served as musical director, leading the RTÉ Concert Orchestra.{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|pp=228}}{{sfn|O'Connor|2010|p=217}} A separate musical director could be nominated by each country to lead the orchestra during their performance, with the host musical director also available to conduct for those countries which did not nominate their own conductor.{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|pp=212–223}} On behalf of the contest organisers, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), the event was overseen by Christian Clausen as scrutineer.{{cite web |title=The Organisers behind the Eurovision Song Contest |url=https://eurovision.tv/about/organisers |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=31 October 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240925231140/https://eurovision.tv/about/organisers |archive-date=25 September 2024 |url-status=live}}{{sfn|O'Connor|2010|p=210}} RTÉ was reported to have spent IR£2.3 million on staging the contest, with the Northern Ireland Tourist Board and the National Lottery among the contest's sponsors. Through the partnership with the National Lottery, around 1,000 places in the audience were filled by members of the public who had won tickets by playing scratchcards.{{sfn|O'Connor|2010|pp=140–143}}{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|pp=210–212}}
Each participating broadcaster submitted one song, which was required to be no longer than three minutes in duration and performed in the language, or one of the languages, of the country which it represented.{{cite web |title=How it works |date=18 May 2019 |url=https://eurovision.tv/about/how-it-works |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=2 November 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220531032850/https://eurovision.tv/about/how-it-works |archive-date=31 May 2022 |language=en-gb |url-status=live}}{{cite web |title=Jerusalem 1999 |url=https://eurovision.tv/event/jerusalem-1999 |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=29 June 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220621202249/https://eurovision.tv/event/jerusalem-1999 |archive-date=21 June 2022 |url-status=live}} A maximum of six performers were allowed on stage during each country's performance, and all participants were required to have reached the age of 16 in the year of the contest.{{cite web |title=The Rules of the Contest |date=31 October 2018 |url=https://eurovision.tv/about/rules |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=2 November 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221004011300/https://eurovision.tv/about/rules |archive-date=4 October 2022 |url-status=live}} Each entry could utilise all or part of the live orchestra and could use instrumental-only backing tracks, however any backing tracks used could only include the sound of instruments featured on stage being mimed by the performers.{{cite web |last1=Escudero |first1=Victor M. |title=#EurovisionAgain travels back to Dublin 1997 |url=https://eurovision.tv/story/eurovisionagain-dublin-1997 |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=8 October 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220523190024/https://eurovision.tv/story/eurovisionagain-dublin-1997 |archive-date=23 May 2022 |date=18 April 2020 |url-status=live}}
Following the confirmation of the twenty-three competing countries, the draw to determine the running order was held on 9 December 1994.{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|pp=210–212}}
The results of the 1995 contest were determined through the same scoring system as had first been introduced in {{escyr|1975}}: each country awarded twelve points to its favourite entry, followed by ten points to its second favourite, and then awarded points in decreasing value from eight to one for the remaining songs which featured in the country's top ten, with countries unable to vote for their own entry.{{cite web |title=In a Nutshell |url=https://eurovision.tv/history/in-a-nutshell |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=8 October 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220626052301/https://eurovision.tv/history/in-a-nutshell |archive-date=26 June 2022 |date=31 March 2017 |url-status=dead}} The points awarded by each country were determined by an assembled jury of sixteen individuals, which was required to be split evenly between members of the public and music professionals, between men and women, and by age. Each jury member voted in secret and awarded between one and ten votes to each participating song, excluding that from their own country and with no abstentions permitted. The votes of each member were collected following the country's performance and then tallied by the non-voting jury chairperson to determine the points to be awarded. In any cases where two or more songs in the top ten received the same number of votes, a show of hands by all jury members was used to determine the final placing.{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|pp=224–227}}{{sfn|Roxburgh|2020|p=73}}
Rehearsals in the contest venue for the competing acts began on 8 May 1995. Each country had two technical rehearsals in the week approaching the contest, with countries rehearsing in the order in which they would perform. The first rehearsals took place on 8 and 9 May, with each country allowed 40 minutes total on stage, with an opportunity to review recordings with producers and to consult on suggested changes afterwards, followed by a 20 minute press conference. Each country's second rehearsals took place on 10 and 11 May, with 30 minutes total on stage.

Broadcasts<span class="anchor" id="Commentators"></span>
Each participating broadcaster was required to relay the contest via its networks. Non-participating EBU member broadcasters were also able to relay the contest as "passive participants". Broadcasters were able to send commentators to provide coverage of the contest in their own native language and to relay information about the artists and songs to their television viewers. These commentators were typically sent to the venue to report on the event, and were able to provide commentary from small booths constructed at the back of the venue.{{cite web |title=Commentator's guide to the commentators |url=https://eurovision.tv/story/commentator-s-guide-to-the-commentators |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=2 November 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181112181824/https://eurovision.tv/story/commentator-s-guide-to-the-commentators |archive-date=12 November 2018 |date=15 May 2011 |url-status=live}}{{cite web |last1=Escudero |first1=Victor M. |title=Commentators: The national hosts of Eurovision |url=https://eurovision.tv/story/commentators-sweden-mans-zelmerlow-edward-af-sillen |publisher=European Broadcasting Union (EBU) |access-date=2 November 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170516182452/https://eurovision.tv/story/commentators-sweden-mans-zelmerlow-edward-af-sillen |archive-date=16 May 2017 |date=14 May 2017 |url-status=live}} Known details on the broadcasts in each country, including the specific broadcasting stations and commentators are shown in the tables below.
