After two amazing semi-finals the Eurovision 2022 final is finally here.
Tonight, 25 countries including the UK’s Eurovision entry Sam Ryder compete for the crown, and it’s due to be a jam packed show at four hours long.
Over at Italy’s PalaOlimpico Arena in Turin, the event will be hosted by singer-songwriter Mika, Italian presenter Alessandro Cattelan and Italian singer Laura Pausini.
As usual, Graham Norton will provide commentary for the BBC’s coverage, taking over from Rylan Clark and Scott Mills who did a smashing job in the week.
The Eurovision odds are currently in our favour with the UK tipped to finish in third place. Of course, viewers will get to have their say once the voting opens later in the competition. For more on how to vote in Eurovision, see here.
