Short answer: Eurovision winner announcements occur during the grand final, with the winner typically revealed at the end of the live show. In recent contests, the final date is set by the host broadcaster and announced in advance; the winner is declared during the final broadcast.
Context and quick guide:
- When: The Eurovision final is scheduled for a single evening (usually in May) after two semifinal shows. The exact date changes year to year depending on the host country. The winner is announced during the final broadcast when the results are revealed live.
- How the winner is determined: A combination of jury and televote from participating countries determines the final rankings, with the top entry crowned the winner at the conclusion of the show.
- How to watch: Most broadcasters provide a live TV or streaming option (e.g., BBC iPlayer in the UK, or the local host broadcaster’s feed). Local schedules can vary.
