Spain participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 in Turin, Italy, with the song "SloMo" performed by Chanel. The Spanish broadcaster Radiotelevisión Española (RTVE), together with the Generalitat Valenciana, organised Benidorm Fest in order to select the Spanish entry for the 2022 contest. Benidorm Fest consisted of two semi-finals on 26 and 27 January and the final on 29 January 2022. A total of thirteen artists and songs competed, and the winner was determined by a combination of votes from an expert jury, a demoscopic panel and a televote.
As part of the "Big Five", Spain directly qualified to compete in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest. Performing during the show in position 10,[1] "SloMo" eventually finished in third place with 459 points. Chanel became the highest scoring Spanish Eurovision entrant and scored Spain its best result since 1995.
Background
Prior to the 2022 contest, Spain had participated in the Eurovision Song Contest sixty times since its first entry in 1961.[2] The nation has won the contest on two occasions: in 1968 with the song "La, la, la" performed by Massiel and in 1969 with the song "Vivo cantando" performed by Salomé, the latter having won in a four-way tie with France, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. Spain has also finished second four times, with Karina in 1971, Mocedades in 1973, Betty Missiego in 1979 and Anabel Conde in 1995. In 2021, Spain placed twenty-fourth with the song "Voy a quedarme" performed by Blas Cantó.
The Spanish national broadcaster, Televisión Española (TVE), broadcasts the event within Spain and organises the selection process for the nation's entry. TVE confirmed their intentions to participate at the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest on 3 June 2021.[3] In 2021, TVE selected the artist that would compete at the Eurovision Song Contest via an internal selection, while the song was selected via a national final. For their 2022 entry, the broadcaster announced on 22 July 2021 that it would organise a national final based on the national song contest Festival Español de la Canción de Benidorm in collaboration with the Generalitat Valenciana, which would feature a competition among several artists and songs.[4]

A music video for "SloMo" premiered on the official YouTube channel of the Eurovision Song Contest on 15 March 2022.[15] Prior to the contest, Chanel made appearances across Europe to specifically promote "SloMo" as the Spanish Eurovision entry. She first performed at the Barcelona Eurovision Party, which was held on 26 March 2022 at Barcelona's Sala Apolo,[16] and later performed at the London Eurovision Party, which was held on 3 April 2022 at London's Hard Rock Hotel venue.[17] She also performed in the Eurovision in Concert at Amsterdam's AFAS Live on 9 April,[18] and the PrePartyES which took place in Madrid's Sala La Riviera on 16 April.[19]

On 27 April, RTVE prepared a farewell ceremony for the Spanish representative to the Eurovision Song Contest 2022.[20] The ceremony was organized in the Cines Callao in Madrid.[20] Prior to the event, a live stream on RTVE Play followed a press conference hosted by the Director of Communication and Participation of RTVE, María Eizaguirre, in which Chanel shared her final thoughts before making the trip to Turin with fans and journalists.[20] She was joined by the Spanish Head of Delegation, Eva Mora; the spokesperson of the Spanish jury for Eurovision 2022, Nieves Álvarez; and the Spanish Eurovision commentators, Julia Varela and Tony Aguilar.[20] Tickets for the event were sold the day before at Torrespaña (Calle Alcalde Sáinz de Baranda, 92): two individual tickets were given to each person who attended.[20]
At Eurovision
According to Eurovision rules, all nations with the exceptions of the host country and the "Big Five" (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom) are required to qualify from one of two semi-finals in order to compete for the final; the top ten countries from each semi-final progress to the final. As a member of the "Big Five", Spain automatically qualified to compete in the final on 14 May 2022. Spain was set to perform in the first half of the final.[21] In addition to its participation in the final, Spain was also required to broadcast and vote in one of the two semi-finals. This was decided via a draw held during the semi-final allocation draw on 25 January 2022, when it was announced that Spain would be voting in the second semi-final.[22]
In Spain, all three shows were broadcast on La 1 with commentary by Tony Aguilar and Julia Varela.[23] The final was also broadcast via radio on Radio Nacional, with commentary by Imanol Durán, Sara Calvo, and David Asensio.[24] In addition, the final was screened live in cinemas across the country due to an agreement with cinema chain Cinesa.[25] The Spanish spokesperson, who announced the top 12-point score awarded by the Spanish jury during the final, was Nieves Álvarez.[26][27]
Voting
Voting during the three shows involved each country awarding two sets of points from 1-8, 10 and 12: one from their professional jury and the other from televoting. Each nation's jury consisted of five music industry professionals who are citizens of the country they represent, with a diversity in gender and age represented. The judges assess each entry based on the performances during the second Dress Rehearsal of each show, which takes place the night before each live show, against a set of criteria including: vocal capacity; the stage performance; the song's composition and originality; and the overall impression by the act.[28] Jury members may only take part in panel once every three years, and are obliged to confirm that they are not connected to any of the participating acts in a way that would impact their ability to vote impartially. Jury members should also vote independently, with no discussion of their vote permitted with other jury members. The exact composition of the professional jury, and the results of each country's jury and televoting were released after the grand final; the individual results from each jury member were also released in an anonymised form.[29]
Below is a breakdown of points awarded to Spain and awarded by Spain in the second semi-final and grand final of the contest, and the breakdown of the jury voting and televoting conducted during the two shows:
