The Eurovision Grand Final will air on Saturday at 8pm on BBC One. Performing in the Grand Final will be all the acts who successfully made it through their respective semi-finals along with the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Germany, and Italy who make up the Big Five.

Joining them will be last year’s winner Ukraine who also automatically qualify. The show will open with last year’s winners Kalush Orchestra and a performance titled Voices of a New Generation.

The result of the 2023 Eurovision Grand Final will be decided by juries and viewers watching at home.

Votes will come from a jury of five music professionals in each of the 37 countries taking part as well as from the audience, which for the first time will include non-competing ‘rest of the world’ countries.
