The Dutch participating broadcaster, Nederlandse Omroep Stichting (NOS), selected its entry through a national final.

Nederlandse Omroep Stichting (NOS) held the national final at the Jaarbeurs in Utrecht, hosted by Willem Duys.

On the evening of the final Teach-In performed first in the running order, preceding Ireland.

1975 saw the introduction of the current Eurovision scoring system, and "Ding-a-dong" received six maximum 12 points votes from Israel, Malta, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.

This was the first time in Eurovision history that the contest was won by the song which had opened the show, though this would happen again with the United Kingdom the following year and Sweden in 1984.
