City: Where will Eurovision 2027 be held?
Bulgaria has just won Eurovision 2026, and a lot of planning has already started for the Bulgarian broadcaster BNT (Balgarska Natsionalna Televizia).
The application process for host cities has not started yet, where interested Bulgaria cities and municipalities can apply.
The final decision on the Eurovision 2027 host city will be made by BNT and the EBU (European Broadcasting Union).
The cities will be scored on a set of criteria. Most importantly the venue, which should accommodate at least 10,000 spectators and be available for six to eight weeks for preparations. The city should also have hotel accommodation for thousands of delegates, journalists, and spectators. A press center for 1,500 journalists at or close to the main venue is also mandatory.
Four cities have expressed interest in hosting Eurovision 2027:
- Burgas
- Plovdiv
- Sofia
- Varna
The final announcement on the host city is expected in August or September 2026.
Participants
7 countries have expressed their interest for participation in the contest, which is (of course) subject to change:
EBU Member Broadcasters, on behalf of their countries, have until mid-October 2026 to formally submit their applications to take part in Eurovision 2027.
Tickets
Tickets usually go on sale in December/January, so we expect the tickets for Eurovision 2027 to be released late 2026. Read more: How to get tickets for Eurovision 2027.
Eurovision Village
Eurovision Village is the official festival area during Eurovision Song Contest 2027.
In Eurovision Village you can see live performances by artists, DJs, special events and public viewing of the shows broadcast from the Arena.
EuroClub
The EuroClub is the venue for some special parties, the official after parties and performances by participants.
