The 26 countries competing in the Eurovision Grand Final have been confirmed and the running order is locked in. How exciting.
A total of 20 qualifiers from the semi-finals have joined the Big Five – France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK – plus last year’s winners Ukraine in Saturday’s showpiece at the Liverpool Arena.
If you’re planning to have a punt on the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest then it’s worth noting that the Grand Final running order is quite important. That’s because the general assumption is that it’s better to perform in the second half of the show in order to remain fresh in the minds of the voting public.
What makes this year’s contest a fascinating affair is that the majority of the favourites in the Paddy Power’s Outright Winner betting market are set to perform in the first half.
Loreen (Sweden) will be the ninth act of 26 to take to the stage, Käärijä (Finland) is 13th in the running order, La Zarra (France) is sixth up and Blanca Paloma (Spain) is eighth. Mae Muller (United Kingdom) rounds off the show with her ditty ‘I Wrote A Song’.
The latest Eurovision odds can be found on the Paddy Power website and Paddy Power app, otherwise the Grand Final running order is below.
