When is the Eurovision Song Contest?

As ever, the huge music event will take place in mid-May. The two Semi-Finals happened on Tuesday 13th and Thursday 15th May, with the Grand Final happening on Saturday 17th May.

Who is representing the UK?

After Olly Alexander represented the UK in 2024, this year sees country pop act Remember Monday take to the stage, with a track called 'What The Hell Just Happened?'.

Made up of Lauren Byrne, Holly-Anne Hull and Charlotte Steele, Remember Monday will be the first girl band to represent the UK since Precious way back in 1999.

Speaking about the honour, Remember Monday said: “What The Hell Just Happened is exactly how we’re feeling right now! It’s all very surreal; our friendship goes so far back, and we definitely never imagined that we’d be doing anything like this. When you’re a kid and people ask you what you want to be when you grow up, an absolute classic is “I wanna be a pop star”, so the fact that we’re getting the chance to live that dream as three best friends is just wild.

"We’re going to be the first girl band to represent the UK since 1999, which feels like such a crazy honour. We’re going to bring loads of fun, energy and hopefully do something that you won’t have seen before on the Eurovision stage….We honestly can’t wait to experience this with all of the other incredible artists from around the world, and hopefully make everyone back at home feel proud! This is really the music World Cup and we’ll do our best to bring it home!”
