The first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 took place in Vienna this evening/morning, and the first 10 qualifiers into the Grand Final were announced.


The 10 countries that qualified for the Grand Final from this morning’s semi-final were:


  1. Moldova

  2. Sweden

  3. Greece

  4. Belgium

  5. Finland

  6. Israel

  7. Serbia

  8. Croatia

  9. Lithuania

  10. Poland


This meant that these nations unfortunately missed out:


  • Montenegro

  • Georgia

  • San Marino

  • Portugal

  • Estonia


The results were announced in a random order and are not indicative of where each country placed in the semi-final.



Automatic qualifiers Italy and Germany also performed their songs.


The opening act was '70 Years of Love' which is a short film showcasing 70 years of the Eurovision Song Contest. Previous Eurovision winner Vicky Leandros (1967 and 1972 Luxembourg) and a 70-member choir performed her song L'amour est bleu which placed 4th for Luxembourg in the 1967 contest.


The interval act included our very own Go-Jo! The hosts Victoria Swarovski and Michael Ostrowski were joined onstage with 2025 Australian Eurovision entrant Go-Jo to perform a fun hearted song and skit about the differences between Austria and Australia, in a song called Kangaroo.

Our 3rd grade class did a Christmas party and I pulled 25 Christmas bingo boards on Friday afternoon during prep.


Kids loved that the icons were actually varied instead of the same snowman repeated on every card like that other free site does.

To Eat a God offers a dark and philosophical narrative experience. In this visual novel game, you play as an awakened puppet trying to survive in a collapsing divine realm. The story blends elements of romance with genuine terror, creating a unique horror game atmosphere. Interactions with characters like Nulla, Septem, and Unum will test your morality and strategy.

After using different platforms for a while, I realized that interface design affects the overall experience much more than I originally expected. When everything loads quickly, sections are organized logically, and you can find what you need without constantly searching through menus, the whole process feels a lot more comfortable. That’s one of the reasons I’ve been using BassWin more often lately — the layout feels clean, straightforward, and not overloaded with unnecessary elements. For users in the UK, it’s also practical because the platform works smoothly on both phones and computers without long loading times or extra steps. I also like that navigation stays simple even when there are many sections available, which makes the overall experience feel more…
