Meet the hosts of Eurovision Asia 2026
Guiding viewers through the inaugural Eurovision Asia Song Contest will be Thai television personalities Woody Milintachinda and Cindy Bishop, who will host the historic event from Bangkok's One Bangkok Forum on 14 November.
So who are Woody Milintachinda and Cindy Bishop?
Woody Milintachinda
One of Thailand's most recognisable media figures, Woody Milintachinda brings decades of broadcasting experience to the Eurovision Asia stage.
Best known for his long-running talk show Woody Talk, he has interviewed international celebrities, political leaders and cultural figures from across the globe.
Beyond television, Woody is also the founder of the internationally renowned S2O Songkran Music Festival, helping introduce Thai culture to audiences around the world.
Known for his energetic presenting style and ability to connect with guests from all walks of life, Woody's experience with large-scale entertainment events makes him a natural choice to front Eurovision Asia's first edition.
Cindy Bishop
Joining Woody is actress, model and presenter Cindy Bishop, a familiar face to audiences across Asia.
With more than 30 years in the entertainment industry, Bishop is perhaps best known internationally for hosting Asia's Next Top Model between seasons four and six. Fluent in both English and Thai, she has built a reputation as one of the region's most accomplished bilingual presenters.
Away from television, Bishop is also a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador for Asia and the Pacific, using her platform to promote gender equality and social change. Her extensive experience in live events and international productions provides Eurovision Asia with a host capable of connecting with audiences both within the region and beyond.
A fitting duo for a historic contest
With Woody's warmth and interview expertise combined with Bishop's international presenting credentials, Eurovision Asia has assembled a hosting team well suited to launch the contest's first-ever edition. Together, they will welcome viewers from across the region as Asia begins its own chapter in the Eurovision story.
The Eurovision Song Contest Asia is being held this Saturday in Bangkok, Thailand at 8.30pm (local time).
