It had been rumoured for a couple of weeks that Delta was set to represent Australia at Eurovision in 2026.

The music video was also filmed in the Australian desert
Speaking on her decision to participate at Eurovision, Delta said:
I’m so honoured to represent Australia on one of the biggest and most iconic music stages in the world at Eurovision! As a singer-songwriter, music has been my lifelong passion. I’ve always loved the creativity, individuality, and joy Eurovision brings, connecting and uniting people across the globe through music; the universal language. I can’t wait to arrive in Vienna and make Australia proud.
Australia’s Eurovision journey
The most recent country to debut into the Eurovision Song Contest, Australia debuted in 2015. Guy Sebastian represented the land down under with his entry “Tonight Again” in Vienna, where they placed 5th. Since their debut, they have participated every single year of the competition.
Australia internally selected Go-Jo to represent them in 2024 with the song “Milkshake Man”. He ultimately failed to reach the Grand Final, placing eleventh in the second semi-final with 41 televote points.
