Eurovision Village



Today's theme at the Eurovision Village is "Insieme Eurovisions". This day will be all about honouring the Eurovision songs with a clear message, but it will also feature performances from many Eurovision acts past and present, national final artists, and even a Eurovision winner!


Celebrating the best music from both sides of the Baltic Sea, Erika Vikman, Lordi, and Tommy Cash will take to the Eurovision Village stage from 8:15pm, performing their successful Eurovision hits as well as other tracks from their discographies.


Additionally, many 2026 Eurovision artists will take to the Eurovision village stage, including Satoshi, Essyla, Alicja, and Senhit.

Eurovision Market Contest



Calling all foodies! From 2pm to 7pm today, the Eurovision Market Contest will take place at Vienna's famous Naschmarkt, in and around the market area. Numerous market stalls will offer culinary delights and specialties from the countries participating in this year's Eurovision Song Contest, complemented by live music featuring past and present Eurovision entries.



WL x Sing Along



From 4pm - 10pm, the Eurovision Tram will be parked at Karlsplatz, in front of the Otto Wagner Pavilions, to host the first of two Sing Along live events scheduled this week.


The tram will transform into a karaoke stage for fans to sing along to Eurovision classics and hits, with a focus on fun, community, and the shared Eurovision experience. Admission is free!



Singalong at the Vienna Volksoper



The Vienna Volksoper invites you to a grand Eurovision Song Contest sing-along in front of the opera house for the second time this week in the lead-up to the final - free for everyone! Tonight's sing-along will take place at 6pm.


Supported by the Volksoper Choir, the greatest Eurovision hits of the last seven decades will take you on a journey from the 1950s to today, from Domenico Modugno's Nel blu dipinto di blu (Volare) and Udo Jürgens' timeless Merci, Chérie to ABBA's Waterloo, Dschinghis Khan, Johnny Logan's Hold Me Now, and many more hits.


There will be commentary and lyrics to follow along, so that all amateur singers, Eurovision fans, and vocal talents can participate with enthusiasm. Because even more than listening together, singing together brings us closer to people who, at first glance, seem completely different from us. And isn't that precisely what the Eurovision Song Contest, which this year has the motto "United by Music," is all about?


A motto that has always been true at the Volksoper: people from over 30 nations, both on and off stage, make it the perfect match when the world comes to Vienna to celebrate this unique musical event.



Kunstschatzi goes Eurovision Song Contest


Kunstschatzi is in Eurovision fever! Join this Kunstschatzi special edition and let art educators take you to the spots in the museum where the Eurovision vibe hits the hardest. Because long before Spotify & Co., artists were already capturing music in artworks and making it last forever – painted, hidden, even built into curious mechanical devices. (And YES, some historical parties were definitely louder than you’d expect.)


If you look closely (and listen a little), you might even spot throwbacks to iconic Eurovision Song Contest moments in the works. Love, drama, big emotions - it’s all there. And of course, the vision of a united Europe. So come through, see a few familiar (and new) faces at the KHM - “In the Heart of Europe - United by Art!”


Entry to this event starts at 7pm, with guided tours running from 7:30pm - 10:00pm.


The ticket price for this event is €49; click here for more details and to book.



Euro-Club


Tonight is Pink Night at Euro-Club, a night dedicated to pop, colour, and pure Eurovision spirit. Eurovision artists from this year's contest will get their chance to shine on the Euroclub stage, but not only that, Parg (Armenia 2025) will also be performing at Euro-Club tonight!


Euro-Club is also set to feature performances from 2026 Eurovision artists to be announced; we will keep you updated with more details as they are revealed.


Euro-Club will also host DJ First Rank, DJ Henrik, DJ Linus, DJ Ohrmeister, Itzik, Schlagerprofilerna, and Sinner G tonight.
