Eurovision Song Contest 2023: Can UK viewers vote for Mae Muller?

All 26 acts have now performed in the grand final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2023.

Held in Liverpool at the M&S Bank Arena, the 67th contest featured Australian rock, an ode to Edgar Allan Poe, and a Boy George-esque hat from Belgium’s Gustaph.

The UK was represented by 25-year-old singer Mae Muller with her song I Wrote a Song.

The track was performed last on the night and has been streamed more than eight million times since it was released earlier this year.

With her exceptional performance as the last thing in viewers minds, people might be wondering if we can back Mae here at home.

Sadly, the UK is not able to vote for Mae. To ensure a fair contest, strict Eurovision rules mean that each country cannot vote for their own representatives. The same applies for the contest’s jury of musical professionals.

However, viewers in the UK can vote for any of the other 25 acts by calling in from landlines or mobiles. We’ve rounded out how to vote right here.

The grand final takes place live on BBC One.
