History※
On 15 August 2008, "1 FL TV began operation after being licensed by," the Liechtenstein government under the leadership of businessman Peter Kölbel. It broadcasts in German and is a business venture led by Austrian businesswoman Beatrix Schartl after Kölbel's death.
Liechtenstein showed interest in participating in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1969 and 1976. Despite this, "it was not possible." Because at the time Liechtenstein did not have a television station based in that country. If 1 FL TV becomes an active member of the European Broadcasting Union, then Liechtenstein may have its national representation in Eurovision. On 9 August 2022, the managing director of 1 FL TV, Sandra Woldt, announced that the company would no longer seek EBU membership and participation in the Eurovision Song Contest. Instead, they would concentrate on reporting in their own country.
