While you dust off your Eurovision 2024 scorecard to check how the countries ranked, one thing’s for sure: Eurovision continues to bring people together like no other event. Whether you're comparing the wildest outfits or rewatching your favorites on YouTube, the Eurovision Song Contest is a yearly celebration of unity, sequins, and sometimes… surprisingly catchy tunes.
Every May, Europe turns up the volume, grabs the glitter, and settles in for one of the continent’s most iconic traditions: Eurovision. Since 1956, the contest has been bringing together countries from across Europe – and beyond – to celebrate music, culture, and a little friendly competition.
But Eurovision is about more than just key changes and pyrotechnics. It’s about connection. Families and friends cheering for their home country from opposite sides of the globe. Expats tuning in from afar. A shared moment that brings people closer, wherever they live.
Sound familiar? We think so too.
