2024 Eurovision Song Contest: The full running order
The 2024 Eurovision Song Contest is now right on our doorstep. Organized by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), the Eurovision Song Contest is the most famous, extravagant music competition in existence with various European countries (plus Australia, who joined in 2015 as part of the competition’s 60th edition) competing to be crowned the year’s winner and host the next year’s competition.
Before the grand final, however, two semi-finals take place. The top 10 in each semi-final then go through to the final, where they are joined by the host country (the winner of the previous year) and the Big Five (UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, and France) — who all qualify automatically. Then, each country performs and vies for votes.

After the performances, every member of the EBU dials in and dishes out 1-8, 10, and 12 points to their favorite songs – with the points decided via a combination of public votes and jury decisions in each country. Whichever country amasses the most points wins.
The two semi-finals took place earlier this week on May 7 and May 9, respectively, meaning we now know exactly which 26 countries will be performing at the grand final on Saturday May 11. The countries that qualified are Armenia, Austria, Croatia, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, Georgia, Greece, Ireland, Israel, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Serbia, Slovenia, Switzerland, and Ukraine. They are joined by the aforementioned Big Five as well as las year’s winner and this year’s host, Sweden.
