The Eurovision Song Contest is back, and this year promises to be bigger and better than ever before. The BBC has just announced the incredible line-up of musical talent set to perform at the Grand Final. Get ready for the return of many former Eurovision artists.

The Grand Final will kick off with a performance by Kalush Orchestra, last year’s winners. The Ukrainian group captured hearts around the world with their smash hit “Stefania,” and they are back to open the 2023 Grand Final with “Voices of a New Generation.” Kalush has been performing at some Eurovision national finals this season – in counties such as Poland and Denmark. We are happy to hear that they will continue their little tour by performing in Liverpool.

During the Eurovision Flag Parade, viewers will be treated to a unique performance by some iconic past Ukrainian Eurovision contestants. GO_A, Jamala, Tina Karol, and Verka Serduchka will take to the stage. This has been promised to be a new twist on their Eurovision entries, weaved with British classics, and is not to be missed.

For the first interval performance, viewers will witness the triumphant return of the UK’s very own spaceman Sam Ryder. After leading the UK’s biggest success in last year’s Contest for over two decades with his performance of “SPACE MAN,” Ryder has achieved even more success within the UK. He has a number-one debut album, a nomination for “Best Breakthrough Act” at the BRITs, and a spot on the line-up for the Platinum Party at the Palace for last year’s Platinum Jubilee.

The final interval act, named “The Liverpool Songbook,” celebrates the host city’s incredible contribution to the world of pop music. The BBC has brought together six iconic past Eurovision acts – Italy’s Mahmood, Israel’s Netta, Iceland’s Daði Freyr, Sweden’s Cornelia Jakobs, and Duncan Laurence from the Netherlands – plus Liverpool’s very own Sonia, celebrating 30 years since she came second at Eurovision in 1993.

The two Eurovision semi-finals are on the 9th and the 11th of May, and the Final with the aforementioned acts is on the 13th of May.
