The grand final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 has finally arrived after a busy week of semi-finals and events for those lucky enough to be in Sweden in the build up to what is always one of the biggest nights of the year.

Loreen's win in 2023 with her track Tattoo meant that Malmo in Sweden would be the location for this year's competition - which also just so happens to mark 50 years since Abba won Eurovision with their hit track, Waterloo.

And so after months of planning, the Grand Final of Eurovision 2023 takes place tonight, Saturday, May 11, at Malmö Arena. The epic night will see all 25 acts taking to the stage to compete for the coveted Eurovision trophy - including the UK's entry Olly Alexander of Years and Years fame.
