Overview
The Eurovision Song Contest is an international song competition, organised annually by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and featuring participants representing primarily European countries. Each participating country submits an original song to be performed on live television and radio, transmitted to national broadcasters via the EBU's Eurovision and Euroradio networks, with competing countries then casting votes for the other countries' songs to determine the winner.

Grand Final
The 66th Eurovision Song Contest was held in Turin, the third Italian city to host, following Måneskin's 2021 victory. Ukraine's Kalush Orchestra triumphed with their song 'Stefania', which became the first winning entry to feature a rap. The group received an overwhelming 439 points from the public televote, dominating the scoreboard. The United Kingdom's Sam Ryder won the jury vote and finished second overall with 'SPACE MAN', earning the UK its best result since 1998. Spain's Chanel also celebrated, taking third place with 'SloMo' for their best result since 1995. In June 2022, due to the ongoing war in the winning country, the EBU made the decision that Ukraine would not host the 2023 contest.
