Spain was represented in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 with the song "Voy a quedarme" written by Blas Cantó, Leroy Sanchez, Daniel Ortega "Dangelo", and Dan Hammond, and performed by Blas Cantó himself. The Spanish participating broadcaster Radiotelevisión Española (RTVE) selected its entry through a national final, after having previously selected the performer internally. Cantó was due to compete in the 2020 contest with "Universo" before the event's cancellation. RTVE announced Cantó as its representative on 18 March 2020, while the national final Destino Eurovisión 2021 was organised in order to select the song he would perform. Two songs competed in the televised show where a public vote exclusively selected "Voy a quedarme" as the winning song, receiving 58% of the votes.
As a member of the "Big Five", Spain automatically qualified to compete in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest. Performing in position 13, Spain placed twenty-fourth out of the 26 participating countries with 6 points.
