The Belgian participating broadcaster, Flemish Belgische Radio- en Televisieomroep (BRT), selected its entry through a national final.

All shows were held in the Amerikaans Theater in Brussels, and hosted by Jan Theys.

However, Will Tura was eventually replaced by Johnny White [nl] for unknown reasons.

Louis Neefs was absent from semi-final 3 as he was in Berlin for a TV programme and would have been too ill to return to Brussels in time.

[2] On the night of the final Neefs performed 10th in the running order, following Germany and preceding eventual contest winners the United Kingdom.

At the close of the voting "Ik heb zorgen" had received 8 points (the highest being 3 from Finland), placing Belgium 7th of the 17 participating countries.
