Here’s who qualified for the Eurovision Grand Final after second Semi-Final

The Eurovision Grand Final is just days away, and here are all the Eurovision qualifiers following the Semi-Final 2.

Basel is hosting the event following Switzerland’s victory in 2024 with Nemo’s “The Code.” The first Semi-Final took place earlier this week, with 10 contestants fighting for a place in the Grand Final. 

After the Eurovision Semi-Final 2, 10 more countries, including Israel, secured a place in the Grand Final despite calls and protests for the country’s act to be banned from the competition. 

Several queer artists are representing their respective countries, and 37 countries are participating in this year’s contest.
