Finale Belge pour le Grand Prix Eurovision 1960 de la Chanson Européenne was the national final format developed by INR in order to select Belgium's entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 1960. The national final was held during the first part of the show "D'une scène à l'autre".[1]
INR received 187 submissions, from which ten songs were chosen over three days by a 10-member jury. The jury then chose five songs to take part in the televised selection and at the same time, decided the results of the selection.[1]
Five entries competed in the competition which was held on 24 January 1960 at the INR studios in Brussels, and was hosted by Georges Désir [fr] & Arlette Vincent [fr]. The winner was chosen by an "expert" jury. Among the other participants was Solange Berry, who had represented Luxembourg in the 1958 contest.[1][2]
"Mon amour pour toi" was conducted by Henri Segers and performed 5th in the running order, following Denmark and preceding Norway. At the close of the voting it had received 9 points, placing Belgium 6th of the 13 entries. The Belgian jury awarded its highest mark (3) to contest winners France.[3] It was succeeded as Belgian representative at the 1961 contest by Bob Benny performing "September, gouden roos".
Every country had a jury of ten people. Every jury member could give one point to his or her favourite song.
