In order to participate, each country must perform a song that has not been previously released and lasts for a maximum of three minutes. A maximum of six people can stand on stage during the performance. Our country has won only once: in 1986, with Sandra Kim’s performance of “J’aime la vie”.

qualifications

This year, forecasts put Ukraine in first place among the candidates for the 66th edition of the singing competition. The first position will essentially be a symbol of the country, which is currently under heavy fire from Russian forces. Pending a win, Ukraine already qualified for the final on Tuesday during the first semi-final, with Switzerland, Armenia, Iceland, Lithuania, Portugal, Norway, Greece, Moldova and the Netherlands managing to qualify as well.

The so-called “Big Five” – ​​France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom – automatically qualified for the final. Because Italy is the host country, they were already sure of their place in the final. After Naples in 1965 and Rome in 1991, the Eurovision Song Contest was held in Italy for the third time.

The Grand Final is scheduled for Saturday 14 May.
