It's time to crown a Eurovision 2022 winner, as the finale of the extravagant gala is now underway! The annual international battle of the bands has been taken place all week, culminating today (May 14) with the Grand Final. The list of finalists is below.
The 2022 Eurovision Song Contest is this week, with the Grand Final broadcasting at ET / 12 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. BST on Saturday. Full details below.

A total of 40 countries began the contest, but that's been whittled down to the last 25. Our finalists include the top vote-getters from the semi-finals alongside the teams from "the Big Five" (Germany, France, the UK, Italy and Spain). "The Big Five," if you've never heard the term, is the group of countries that contribute the largest financial amounts to the European Broadcasting Union.
Eurovision 2022 is happening in Turin, Italy, following Italy's victory at Eurovision 2021, where Måneskin's song "Zitti e buoni" took the title. While the Netherlands government lowered live audience capacity to 80 percent for last year, it doesn't appear that the Eurovision audiences in Turin are going to be limited.
Here's everything you need to watch Eurovision 2022 online.
