Kaledonii has participated in the Internatia Song Contest since ISC 11. While the nation managed to place fifth with their debut entry, it has generally failed to make a major impact in the Internatia rankings; it has only managed to qualify to the final one more time since its debut in ISC 11. In the first semi-final of ISC 16, Kaledonii made history by becoming the first country to receive nul points without being disqualified.

History
Internatia Song Contest 11
Kambriite-duo Eva & the Heartmaker was internally selected by Radio Television Kaledonii to represent the nation in Marvelia. Their song Traces Of You qualified to the final where they came 5th– the best result for Kaledonii to date.
Internatia Song Contest 12
Metsaema singer Diandra Flores was chosen to represent Kaledonii after winning the inagural edition of the Kaledonii Song Festival in a landslide. Unfortunately for Flores, the Internatian voters were not charmed by her performance and she ended up 15th in her semi-final.

Internatia Song Contest 13
Konficor artist Lisa Gerrard was internally selected by Radio Television Kaledonii to represent the nation at the 13th Internatia Song Contest in Spirevo with the song Now We Are Free. Despite Kaledonii press stating that she was one of the front-runners for victory, Gerrard only barely managed to qualify to the final; placing 22nd in a field of 25.
Internatia Song Contest 14
Following a long meeting, the Cultural Division of RTK chose the Karonii group Aphrodite's Child to represent Kaledonii at the 14th Internatia Song Contest in Luzze. Aphrodite's Child crashed and burned in the semifinal; they escaped last place only due to the last-minute disqualification of Canedonia.
Internatia Song Contest 15
RTK held the second edition of the Kaledonii Song Festival to choose the entrant for the 15th edition of the Internatia Song Contest. Kejsi Tola won the right to represent the nation in Tramandi, Tikata. Unfortunately, she failed to qualify, placing 15th in a field of 27.

Internatia Song Contest 16
Slovak rock band Elán was chosen to represent Kaledonii at the Internatia Song Contest 16 in Pensa, Anselmsuusonia with their song, "Od Tatier k Dunaju".
Unfortunately, the song failed to impress voters from the rest of the countries in the semi-final; Kaledonii did not receive a single point from these nations. This occurrence was the first such time that a nation in the Internatia Song Contest had failed to receive a single point (other than disqualified nations who automatically lose all their points). While the nation did not receive any points, Kaledonii did not place last in its semi-final; Volnytaria's failure to vote in the semi-final resulted in its disqualification—Kaledonii, therefore, placed 23rd out of 24 nations.
Internatia Song Contest 17
Céline Dion was the original Kaledonii representative for the Internatia Song Contest 16 in Pensa, Anselmsuusonia. However, scheduling conflicts due to the imminent release of her new album, Loved Me Back To Life, resulted in her participation being delayed until the Internatia Song Contest 17 due to be held in Liechgrado, Yazminia.
On 1 November 2013, Dion was drawn to sing her song, "Loved Me Back To Life", third in the first semi-final of the 17th Internatia Song Contest. She, along with 25 other nations, is competing for one of 13 qualification spots from the semi-final. Despite placing 14th, Céline Dion was chosen as the "13th qualifier" due to her fifth placing in the International Jury vote.
In the final, Dion wowed viewers from her 22nd draw and she placed 9th in a field of 27; her 108 points were the highest points Kaledonii has received in an Internatia Song Contest final to date.
Internatia Song Contest 18
Following disappointing results in the Internatia Song Contest 16, RTK decided to hold a six-song Kaledonii Song Festival. The winner of this festival, The Piano Guys (feat. Shweta Subram), will be the Kaledonii representative at the Internatia Song Contest 18 which will be held in Astrée, Kosma during December 2013.
