Australia will compete in the Eurovision Song Contest in 2016 for the second time, organisers have confirmed.
The country will send an entry 10,000 miles (15,000km) to take part in next year’s event in Stockholm.
Eurovision said Australia’s involvement was an “exciting step” towards making the contest “a truly global event”.
Guy Sebastian last year performed as an Australian wildcard entry, to mark the show’s 60th anniversary and came fifth with his song, Tonight Again.
