Finland was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 1974 with the song "Keep Me Warm", composed by Eero Koivistoinen, with lyrics by Frank Robson, and performed by Carita Holmström.

The Finnish participating broadcaster, Yleisradio (Yle), selected its entry through a national final.

British singer-songwriter Roger Whittaker performed as an interval act.

The winning song "Älä mene pois" was performed in Finnish in the national selection shows but it was translated into English for the Eurovision Song Contest as "Keep Me Warm".

On the night of the final Carita Holmström performed first in the running order, preceding United Kingdom.
