The 14th Eurovision Song Contest was held on Saturday 29 March 1969 at the "Teatro Real", Madrid, Spain. Laurita Valenzuela presented the festival and the musical director was Augusto Algueró. Sixteen countries took part in the contest with Austria deciding not to participate that year.

At the close of voting, four countries were controversially declared joint-winners: the United Kingdom with "Boom Bang-a-Bang" by Lulu, Spain with "Vivo cantando" by Salomé, the Netherlands with "De troubadour" by Lenny Kuhr, and France with "Un jour, un enfant" by Frida Boccara. It was the first time in the history of the contest that a tie had occurred, and as there was no tiebreaker rule in place at the time, all four countries were declared joint winners.
