The Eurovision Song Contest 1967 was the twelfth Eurovision Song Contest. The presenter became confused whilst the voting was taking place, and declared the United Kingdom's entry to be the winner before the last country had announced its votes. The winning entry "Puppet on a String" had one of the widest margins of victory ever witnessed in the competition; it garnered more than twice as many votes as the second place song.
Denmark chose not to participate and left the contest at this point, to return in 1978.
The United Kingdom's win was their first. Switzerland score nul points for the second time.
