Eurovision 2021 final full running order revealed - lineup and when the UK will sing

The full running order for Eurovision 2021 has been revealed, with the UK singing ninth.

A draw took place to decide which countries would perform in the first and second halves of the show, and from there producers decided the running order.

Cyprus will open the competition, and San Marino will be the last act to perform.

This year's Eurovision is taking place in Rotterdam after the Netherlands won the 2019 competition (2020's contest was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic).

Italy is the current favourite to win this year, shortly followed by France.

Iceland has had to pull out of the live shows following a positive coronavirus test, but act Daði og Gagnamagnið will stay in the competition. Footage of a recent rehearsal will be used in place of a live performance.
