Eurovision Is Heading to Bulgaria

For the first time in its history, Bulgaria will host the Eurovision Song Contest. The honour follows DARA’s landmark win at Eurovision 2026 — the country’s first victory after decades of near-misses — which, by tradition, brings the contest to the winning nation the following year.

Eurovision is the largest live music event on the planet, watched by more than 160 million people across dozens of countries. In 2027 that spectacle — the semi-finals, the Grand Final, and a week of celebrations — comes to Bulgaria, making it one of the most sought-after live events of the year.
