The Eurovision Song Contest 2026 was the 70th edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. It consisted of two semi-finals on 12 and 14 May and a final on 16 May 2026, held at Wiener Stadthalle in Vienna, Austria, and presented by Victoria Swarovski and Michael Ostrowski, with Emily Busvine acting as the green room host. It was organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and host broadcaster Österreichischer Rundfunk (ORF), which staged the event after winning the 2025 contest for Austria with the song "Wasted Love" by JJ.
Broadcasters from thirty-five countries participated in the contest, two fewer than in 2025 and the smallest number of participants since 2003, before the introduction of semi-finals. Iceland, Ireland, the Netherlands, Slovenia, and Spain opted not to participate in protest at Israel's inclusion in the context of the Gaza war, marking the largest number of boycotting countries in the contest's history since 1970, while Bulgaria, Moldova, and Romania returned after absences from recent editions.
The winner was Bulgaria with the song "Bangaranga", performed by Dara and written by her with Anne Judith Wik, Cristian Tarcea, and Dimitris Kontopoulos. The song won both the jury vote and televote, the first entry to do so since Portugal in 2017, and gave Bulgaria its first win in the contest. Israel, Romania, Australia, and Italy rounded out the top five, with Romania equaling its best placements from 2005 and 2010 while achieving its highest points total to date. Luxembourg failed to qualify for the final for the first time, leaving Ukraine as the only country to have always progressed from the semi-finals since their introduction in 2004.
The EBU reported that the contest had a television audience of 131 million viewers in 35 European markets, a decrease of 35 million viewers from the previous edition and the lowest viewing figures since the 2012 contest, which attracted 103 million viewers.
