To mark the return of the music competition, the BBC are providing a variety of Eurovision treats across television, radio and digital to bring the nation together and cheer on this year's UK entry, Look Mum No Computer.
They will be joined by Eurovision super fan Angela Scanlon, who will be commentating live for the BBC alongside Rylan Clark for the semi-finals on Tuesday 12 and Thursday 14 May.
"It’s one of those shows that's always been there, evolving but never losing its magic or madness. I’ve been lucky enough to dip my toe into the Eurovision world before, so it feels great to be doing it again, just with higher heels and a few more sequins!"
Getting the tea from backstage and across Vienna for the BBC’s digital channels is former Drag Race UK winner, Tia Kofi, giving fans exclusive access to this year’s acts, and a behind the scenes look at the humungous event.
"This year’s contest already feels like it’s a close competition between the acts, with some incredible songs from around the globe, and iconic singers like Boy George and Delta Goodrem set to compete alongside our very own brilliant Look Mum No Computer.
"It's sure to be a year to remember! Austria last won in 2014 with Conchita Wurst and now we’re back 11 years later bringing the camp, glamour and music back to Vienna."
Graham Norton also returns to the commentator box for the grand final, bringing his famously witty insights throughout the night. And it's all to play for as the remaining 25 countries, including the UK's entry, will battle it out for the win.
Kalpna Patel-Knight, head of entertainment at the BBC said: “The BBC continues to be the home of Eurovision in the UK, and this year we’re once again offering a treasure trove of brilliant content for audiences to enjoy as we celebrate the 70th anniversary of the contest across the BBC on our platforms.
"Eurovision is one of the most popular events of the year, especially with younger audiences, and it brings the nation together for an unmissable night of joy. I am so excited for audiences to discover what our UK act Look Mum No Computer has in store for what is sure to be an unforgettable performance!”
This year, a number of countries will boycott the contest following the European Broadcasting Union’s decision not to expel Israel from the competition.
The EBU said in a statement: "A large majority of members agreed that there was no need for a further vote on participation and that the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 should proceed as planned, with the additional safeguards in place."
Irish broadcaster RTÉ said: "RTÉ feels that Ireland’s participation remains unconscionable given the appalling loss of lives in Gaza and the humanitarian crisis there, which continues to put the lives of so many civilians at risk."
The Eurovision Song Contest 2026 final will take place on Saturday 16 May 2026.
