Denmark debuted in the 1st edition of North Vision Song Contest and has participated in every edition since then. The Danish broadcaster, Danmarks Radio (DR), has been in charge for the country's participation since the 1st edition. The broadcaster started hosting Dansk Melodi Grand Prix in every edition since the 5th. However, their entry for the 14th edition was selected internally due to being in the pre-qualification round of the edition, making it the first internal selection since the 4th edition.

Denmark is one of the most successful countries in the contest, having eleven top ten placements including three victories. The first two victories of the country were achieved by Amaranthe with the first being in the 4th edition with the song "Amaranthine" and the second in the 11th edition with the song "Drop Dead Cynical". However, the first non-qualification came in the sixth edition, where Julie Berthelsen got the 11th place in the semi-final. The country's second non-qualification in the 13th edition with the 18th place in the semi-final is to date their worst result. The country is currently ranked 27th in the North Vision Ranking of Nations and it peaked at the 1st place after the 2nd edition while its worst placement was 27th after their fourth non-qualification in the 28th edition.
