Yugoslavia was present at the Eurovision Song Contest 1968, held in London, United Kingdom.
The Yugoslav national final to select their entry, was held on 25 February at the RTV Skopje Studios in Skopje. There were six hosts in the contest; Vesna Nestorović, Kristina Remskar, Dubravka Ćećez, Snežana Lipkovska, Rosanda Kovijanić and Helga Vlahović. There were 15 songs in the final, from six subnational public broadcasters of JRT. RTV Titograd made a come-back, after their first participation in 1963 Yugoslav finals. The winner was chosen by the votes of a mixed jury of experts and citizens, one juror from each of the subnational public broadcasters of JRT, and three non-experts - citizens. The winning song was "Jedan dan" performed by the Croatian group Dubrovački trubaduri, written by Stijepo Stražičić and composed by Đelo Jusić and Stipica Kalogjera. Lola Novaković represented Yugoslavia in Eurovision Song Contest 1962.[1]

Dubrovački trubaduri performed 17th (last) on the night of the Contest, following Germany. At the close of the voting the song had received 8 points, coming 7th in the field of 17 competing countries.[3]
