The Irish participating broadcaster, Radio Telefís Éireann (RTÉ), selected its entry through a national final, which ultimately won the contest. In addition, RTÉ was also the host broadcaster and staged the event at the Green Glens Arena in Millstreet, after winning the previous edition with the song "Why Me?" by Linda Martin.

Kavanagh received 187 points, receiving the maximum 12 points a total of 7 times and receiving at least one point from every competing nation.[1] This was Ireland's fifth victory in the contest, and as such RTÉ would be the hosts of the following contest (they did not decline of hosting, unlike Luxembourg after 1973 victory and Israel after 1979 victory).
