The 25 countries that will compete in the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 have finally been officially confirmed ahead of this weekend’s grand final.
Vienna, the capital of Austria situated on the Danube River, is the host of the 70th world music event, with the city also having hosted the contest back in 1967 and 2015.
This year’s song contest has already seen a total of 33 countries take to the stage ahead of the Grand Final on Saturday (May 16), which will take place at the Wiener Stadthalle. The top ten countries from each Semi-Final, which took place on Tuesday (May 12) and Thursday (May 14), have made it through.
As one of the Big Five countries – the United Kingdom, Spain, Germany, France, Italy – the UK’s Sam Battle, aka Look Mum No Computer, had already guaranteed a place in the Grand Final and host country Austria was also guaranteed a place in the Grand Final thanks to Nemo’s victory in 2024.
As already mentioned, the UK is represented at this year’s contest by Look Mum No Computer, an English musician, YouTuber, electronics enthusiast, and composer who posts videos about making pro audio gear and synthesisers, as well as original music tracks, with his track, ‘Eins, Zwei, Drei’.
