Fifteen years after his attempt to represent Spain in the 2009 Eurovision Song Contest and ten years after participating in 'Look Who's Going to Eurovision', Jorge González, singer from Madrid, has announced his participation in the 'Benidorm Fest 2024'. This announcement has excited his followers and has generated expectations about Jorge's possible victory in the prestigious Eurovision Song Contest.

Jorge González became known in the world of music in 2006 when he participated in the program 'Operación Triunfo'. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated his versatility and talent by competing on shows such as 'La Voz' and 'Tu cara me Sony', where he won in 2020. The last year has been especially productive for the singer, with the release of his album Íntimo and the single Agüita, the latter in collaboration with Soraya Arnelas.

In addition to his experience in talent shows, Jorge González has also participated in international festivals, such as the 'Viña del Mar International Song Festival' in Chile and the 'Cerbul de Aur' in Romania in 2018. In 2021, he competed in the acclaimed 'New Wave' festival in Russia, where it stood out by reaching third place.

Despite his success on various stages, Jorge González's dream has always been to represent Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest. This won't be his first attempt; In 2009, he participated in 'Eurovision 2009: El Retorno' with the song Si yo vengo a amorarte, reaching the grand final, but without achieving victory. In 2014, he tried again in 'Look Who's Going to Eurovision' with Although the World Ends, obtaining the bronze medal.

With the Benidorm Fest 2024 on the horizon, Jorge González is looking for a new opportunity to represent Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest. This event, which will take place in Benidorm, is in its third edition and will determine the next Spanish representative for the European contest. The competition consists of semi-finals where songs compete for a place in the grand final, and finally, eight songs will compete for the opportunity to represent Spain at the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö, Sweden.

With 16 artists selected at Benidorm Fest 2024, the event promises to be exciting and full of talent. Jorge González's followers, along with Eurovision fans, will be keeping an eye on his participation and hope that this is the opportunity in which he can finally realize his dream of representing Spain on the European stage.
