The duo représentant de la Finlande ? The Danish Søren Torpegaard Lund ? The Australian candidate Delta Goodrem ? Or perhaps France thanks to Monroe ? A few weeks from the grand final, the pronostics are buzzing about the possible winner of the Eurovision 2026.
As every year, the famous song contest makes its return in May, with contestants more motivated than ever to clinch the finale. This year, the 70th edition of the Eurovision unfolds in Vienna, Austria, following JJ's triumph last year.
And as tradition dictates, two semi-finals will precede the final round. After these two decisive stages, 10 countries will unfortunately miss out on the final. On the bright side, 25 other nations will indeed compete on Saturday, May 16, 2026, promising a spectacular show.
This year again, France Télévisions dresses in Eurovision colors and plans to broadcast the event live from Vienna. But before we see the performers and the eventual winner, Stéphane Bern will host a pre-show starting at 8:30 p.m. on France 2. For thirty minutes, experience the Eurovision buzz through interviews and reports. Then comes the grand final of the contest. It will be available from 9:00 p.m. on France 2 and on france.tv. Camille Cerf will join Stéphane Bern in Vienna to provide live commentary for the evening. The final will also be streamed live on the Eurovision YouTube page.
