Poland was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 with the song "Follow My Heart", written by André Franke, Michał Wiśniewski, Jacek Łągwa, and Real McCoy, and performed by the band Ich Troje. The Polish participating broadcaster, Telewizja Polska (TVP), organised the national final Piosenka dla Europy 2006 in order to select its entry for the contest. The national final took place on 28 February 2006 and featured fifteen entries. "Follow My Heart" performed by Ich Troje was selected as the winner after gaining the most points following the combination of votes from a six-member jury panel and a public vote.

Poland competed in the semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 18 May 2006. Performing in position 12, "Follow My Heart" was not announced among the top 10 entries of the semi-final and therefore did not qualify to compete in the final. It was later revealed that Poland placed eleventh out of the 23 participating countries in the semi-final with 70 points.
