This Saturday, May 17, 2025, 26 countries will face off in song in Basel, Switzerland, for the final of the 69th Eurovision Song Contest. So, when is France's Louane scheduled to perform? Discover the running order of the 26 finalist countries.

After two semi-finals on May 13 and 15, the Eurovision Song Contest is now ready for the Grand Final, scheduled for May 17, 2025 in Basel, Switzerland. This Saturday, 26 countries will battle it out for first place. 26 artists will be giving their all, performing their hit song and hoping to take home the trophy. And some of them, like Sweden's KAJ and Austria's JJ, are the favorites. What about France, defended this year by Louane? For the time being, the country is still ranked among the Top 5 favorites!

So, when will we be able to support and follow Louane 's performance on May 17 at the 69th Eurovision Song Contest? The song contest has just revealed the running order of each country, which is often decisive in the final result.

Good news for France, as Louane will be performing in the latter part of the evening (in 24th position to be precise), a position considered by many to be the easiest to hope for maximum points.

The Swedish contestant was equally fortunate, performing his song just before, in 23rd position. On the other hand, Austria and the Netherlands - also among the Top 5 favorites - were less fortunate, as their respective candidates - JJ and Claude - will be 9th and 12th to take to the stage.

Norway 's Kyle Alessandro will open the festivities, while Shkodra Elektronike, representing Albania this year, will close the evening with his song " Zjerm ".
