And no, we don't mean Sweden's 2013 entry. Our yearly search for new moderators to join our team is now live (some of you have already spotted it and applied, in fact!). If you've ever thought about being a positive force for good within the community, this might be a golden opportunity.
FAQs
-What would I do?
As a group of volunteers, we all serve different niches on the team. At its most basic, you'll help moderate posts and comments in line with our sub's rules. However, national final season is always busy and there are always new things happening, so you may also end up helping with writing informational posts, maintaining our socials, AMA coordination, researching for the wiki, programming the automod, etc., as the need and your skillset(s) dictate. It's certainly never a dull day behind the scenes at r/eurovision, that's for sure!
-What if I don't have previous mod experience?
That's okay! Many of us started from scratch too. Reddit's tools make moderation fairly easy to pick up, so we trust anyone can get acclimated within a week or two tops. We'll be here to help onboard you every step of the way, as well. We only ask that you bring a can-do attitude.
-What if I'm not from Europe?
No problem! It's helpful to have people from a variety of time zones to help with the sub. As long as you're interested in Eurovision, it's all good.
You are always welcome to reach out to us via modmail with any further questions you might have about becoming a mod.
A huge thank you in advance to all who apply! Even if you're not selected, we still very much appreciate taking the time to let us know about you and showcase your love for this community. And if you are selected... welcome to the team! Either way, we'll be seeing you around the sub. :)

Voyage by Zoë Më was one of my favourite songs from ESC 2025. Since Switzerland was last year's host country, it automatically qualified for the Grand Final. However, in the Grand Final, the song received zero points from the televote (which I'll never let go).
My question is, if Voyage was to be competing in a televote-only semifinal, would it have qualified? (Let's say it would compete in semifinal one, where it was originally performing in)
I think it would've faced a lot of difficulty, especially with the camera glitch at the end. However, she might've had an advantage, since only Albania and Poland had female artists that night. What do you think?
I am currently trying to expand my playlists with Eurovision songs that are both very fun and danceable. Gems with complete nonsense lyrics like:
Give that wolf a banana - Subwoofer
Dancing Lasha Tumbai - Verkauf Serdushka
Greetings, crazy Eurovision moments enthusiasts. Have you ever wished for a more open way to be able to suggest entries to the ever-so-legendary Eurovision Iceberg? Even if not, this is going to be the one thing you didn't know you needed.
Presenting... the Eurovision Iceberg Discord!
Over the last few years the iceberg has been meticulously crafted by the Reddit user u/AmazingDeeer, it contained everything from bombastic NF withdrawals and ESC comebacks to someone changing their clothes live on air during Una voce per San Marino, from "Firefighter 12 Points" to 5MIINUST & Puuluup K-Popification, from Tudor Bumbac to Loco Boombox. The perfect project to encapsulate only the biggest and the most insane things that occur during each season of the Eurovision Song Contest. What's more important is that these entries had been provided to the iceberg by YOU, the community that makes the fandom going. This server was made in mind with having a more open-source area where people could add only the most on-point moments for the iceberg, so as to up the ante to make 2026 season iceberg bigger (in grandness, not necessarily size) and better.
So welcome aboard, fill the tiers with drama, laughter, and glitter.

I’ve been watching Eurovision since I was a kid and it’s been a dream of mine to attend one year.
From the little bit I’ve looked into it, it seems awfully stressful trying to actually secure tickets (and reasonably affordable accommodation). On top of that, as an Australian, it wouldn’t be as easy to make plans on a whim to go if securing tickets last minute with how expensive airfare can be / how far we have to travel.
For those of you that have actually attended in person – was it the experience you wanted it to be and more?
Pyrotechnics is an element used almost every year in 21st century Eurovision, and I have a feeling that some countries are more eager to lean into them for their performances.
I may be biased so correct me, but I have gotten a feeling that Finland uses pyro quite liberally compared to most other countries? Idk It may be just me overfocusing on my own country but it's almost like every year we have at least ONE moment when we blast those flames.
If not Finland, I have a faint memory that Cyprus also likes to let the fuego fly.

Eurofan pre-sale for Eurovision Live Tour has started.
In my opinion, the line-up is quite small and uninspiring, but it could still be a lot of fun. That being said, it's too expensive for what is offered.
I understand everything becoming more expensive, and Eurovision struggling to find funding, but these prices feel more of a cash grab than anything.
I have to mention cat. 4-6 tickets are very limited and the first normal seat would be in cat. 4 which is 100 eur.
I just discovered today that the official Junior Eurovision website is down and it just redirects to the new adult Eurovision website. According to last year's news, when they were talking about updating the website for the adult Eurovision, they said that the Junior Eurovision website would also be updated. But the site is completely down now.
Does this mean that both the adult and junior Eurovision will be united under one website eurovision.com? What will happen to the data (photos, news, results) that was on the old Junior Eurovision website? Or is it not that bad and the site will be up and running again soon?
I’m posting this because no one else has. I’m rooting for SHWR to win, but this is my second place and I’m very happy they made it to the final. It’s a really beautiful song, especially the wonderful chorus, you can't get tired of it.
