The Eurovision Song Contest 1964 was the ninth annual Eurovision Song Contest. It was held in Copenhagen on 21 March following the country's victory the previous year. Portugal made its debut while no country returned. Sweden withdrew from competing.

Italy won for the first time scoring 49 points with the song "Non ho l'età", performed by Gigliola Cinquetti. This would remain the country's only win until the 1990 Contest in Zagreb.
