The 2024 Eurovision Song Contest is right around the corner, and the world’s most-watched music competition is religiously marked in the calendars of the legions of queer fans who adore the camp, glitzy song contest.

The best party of the year is fast approaching in May, tickets are selling like hot cakes and, following Loreen’s victory in Liverpool last year, Eurovision will move to Malmö, in Sweden.

As each country hosts their national qualifying contest, we’re slowly learning more about the songs and artists competing for the coveted crown, including Ireland’s non-binary entry and the UK’s very own Olly Alexander, of Years & Years and It’s a Sin fame.

37 countries will be battling it out for the crown this year, with two semi-finals set to take place on 7 and 9 May ahead of the Eurovision grand final on 11 May.

The draw on 30 January will decide which of the two semis each country will participate in – with the exception of the ‘Big Five’ countries of the UK, France, Germany, Spain and Italy, which all have an automatic place in the final.

On March 26 2024, Eurovision announced the running order the various countries will appear on stage – and which of the two semi-finals each country will star in: you can read more here.
