Eurovision 2025 is gearing up for its 69th edition in Basel, Switzerland, with 37 countries competing for the prestigious title. As the Grand Final approaches on May 17, the competition intensifies with standout tracks.
Eurovision 2025 returns to Switzerland for its 69th edition, following the groundbreaking victory of non-binary artist Nemo with "The Code" in 2024. With the competition heating up, several countries have already emerged as strong contenders. Among the big favorites are the Swedish and Austrian representatives, who have gained significant attention. As always, the race is unpredictable, and the final outcome remains uncertain with a few weeks still to go before the May 17 Grand Final.
A shift toward non-English songs is noticeable this year, with many nations opting for native languages in their entries. The "Mamagama" group will represent Azerbaijan in the second part of the first semi-final on May 13, hoping to secure a spot in the final. The first semi-final will eliminate five countries, while another six will be knocked out in the second semi-final on May 15.
The final, which was watched by 163 million viewers around the world last year, will take place on May 17 in Basel's St. Jakobshalle arena, a multi-purpose sport and music venue that can accommodate 12,000 fans.
