Monaco was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 with the song "La Coco-Dance", written by J. Woodfeel and Iren Bo, and performed by Séverine Ferrer. The Monégasque participating broadcaster, Télé Monte-Carlo (TMC), internally selected its entry for the contest. The song and the performer were announced on 2 March 2006, while the song was presented on 14 March 2006 during the SR Sverige radio programme Diggil-ej.
Monaco competed in the semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 18 May 2006. Performing during the show in position 10, "La Coco-Dance" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Monaco placed twenty-first out of the 23 participating countries in the semi-final with 14 points. As of 2024, this was the last entry from Monaco in the contest, before TMC withdrew the following year. The absence has continued in every edition since.
