Australia has reveal their OGAE Poll votes for Eurovision 2026.


Each year the OGAE Eurovision fan clubs from across the world vote for their favourite Eurovision songs ahead of the Contest.


The clubs are part of Organisation Générale des Amateurs de l'Eurovision (OGAE) International who each year conduct a pre-Eurovision Song Contest poll. Every national club casts a vote from all entries participating, using the same scoring system as the one at Eurovision.


Overnight Bulgaria, Australia, Greece, North Macedonia and Lithuania revealed their rankings, with Bulgaria, Greece, North Macedonia and Lithuania giving points to Australia's entry Eclipse by Delta Goodrem.


Here is how Australia voted:




The points were mainly collected by attendees at the recent Eurovision preview parties put on by the club in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth.


Only the votes of OGAE Australia members at those parties counted towards the total.


140 members voted Finland as Australia's top Eurovision 2026 song!

After votes from 30 countries have now officially been revealed, the current standings as of 3 May 2026 are:



How does the OGAE poll work?


Within each club, the act that receives the most votes gets 12 points, the second most receives 10 points, and then 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 point for the remaining acts in descending order of popularity. Just like at Eurovision, OGAE clubs cannot vote for their own country.


On six occasions, the OGAE poll has successfully predicted the winner of the Eurovision Song Contest, with a further four OGAE poll winners coming in second or third place.

  • 2012 - Sweden - Euphoria

  • 2013 - Denmark - Only Teardrops
