Eurovision 2025: Draws for the running order in the Grand Final
See the results of the draws for the Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2025. The draws determine which half of the Grand Final each country will participate in
Shortly after each of the Semi-finals ends, the Grand Final qualifiers will be part of a draw to determine which half of the Grand Final they'll participate in.
Each finalist drew for the running order in the Grand Final with three possible outcomes:
- First half
- Second half
- "Producer's choice"
If a country draws "Producer's choice," this year's show producer, Swiss Broadcasting Corporation (SRG SSR), can freely decide where in the running order they'll put the country for the Grand Final.
Based on the draw, the producer of Eurovision 2025 will decide the running order for the Grand Final. The running order will be decided and announced shortly after Thursday's Semi-final 2 by the producer, the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation (SRG SSR), and approved by the EBU.
It has already been decided via a draw that Switzerland will perform as song number 19 in the Grand Final. The draws of the Big-5 countries will be revealed after the Semi-final they preview their song and vote in.
