Hungary was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2019 with the song "Az én apám", written by József Pápai and Ferenc Molnár, and performed by Pápai himself under the stage name Joci Pápai. The local Media Services and Support Trust Fund (MTVA) and the Hungarian broadcaster Duna Media Service organised the national final A Dal 2019 in order to select the Hungarian entry for the contest in Tel Aviv, Israel. As of 2025, this was Hungary's last entry in the contest, before the country opted out of participating the following year. The absence has continued in every edition since.
