Phase 1: Creating a Eurofan account

To register for the tickets to the Eurovision Song Contest 2026, you must create a Eurofan account on eurovision.com

You will then receive an email to verify your email address. Please note that you can only complete your registration by following the instructions sent to the email address you provided.

You will then receive an email with a link to the official Austrian ticketing partner oeticket to complete your registration.

Phase 2: Registration with oeticket

To complete your ticket registration, you must create an oeticket customer account and register for the Eurovision Song Contest ticket sale at oeticket.com. Please note that you must use the same email address used for your Eurofan account. (If you already have a oeticket customer account with this email address, you do not need to create a new account).

Phase 3: Authentication

eurovision.com and oeticket will authenticate your registration. This involves checking whether your registration meets the requirements for fair ticket sales. The data from your registration and your oeticket customer account will be compared to exclude illegal resellers or so-called ticket bots. Duplicate or suspicious entries will be removed.

Phase 4: Status update

Once your registration has been approved, you will receive an email on Friday 9 January informing you that you can participate in the first ticket sale on Tuesday 13 January 2026 at 13:00 CET.

If you are eligible to participate in the sale, you will receive a purchase link and your unique, non-transferable code via your Eurofan account 48 hours before the start of the first ticket sale.

Please note: Receiving a purchase link and code does not guarantee tickets. Ticket availability is limited. Sales are on a first-come, first-served basis until tickets have sold out.

Why do I need to register to be able to participate in the ticket sale?

Registration is being used to give all those who wish to come to the Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna fair access to tickets. This helps ensure that commercial buyers, bots, or illegal resellers are excluded so that tickets go to genuine fans.

Registration does not guarantee you tickets for the Eurovision Song Contest, as the demand is expected to be higher than the availability.

Please note: You can only register once on eurovision.com until 18 December at 23:59 CET. This registration is valid for all ticket sales.

Which shows will I be able to buy tickets for?

There will be tickets available for a total of nine shows.

I made a typo when entering my email address. Can I register again?

If you made a typing error, you can register again with the correct email address on eurovision.com and oeticket.com. You will then receive an email confirmation of your registration. To complete the registration, please follow the instructions sent to your email address.

What happens during authentication?

The official Eurovision Song Contest ticket selling partner oeticket authenticates your registration. They will check whether your registration meets the requirements for fair ticket sales. They will also check the data from your registration to exclude resellers or so-called ticket bots. Duplicate entries will be removed. If authentication is successful, you will receive an email confirming that you can participate in the ticket sale, along with further information on how to do so.

How many access codes do I get when I successfully register?

If your registration was successful, you will receive one access code to your email address.

Do I have a higher chance of getting a ticket if I register earlier?

No, registering early during the registration window will not give you any advantage. Please ensure you register before the registration window closes on Thursday 18 December at 23:59 CET.

Please note: Registration does not guarantee tickets. It is expected there will be more demand than there are tickets available.

How will the queue system work when the ticket sale begins?

Visitors who open the link to the order page on Tuesday 13 January 2026 at 13:00 CET will be allocated a random spot in the waiting queue by the ticketing system. Visitors who open the link at 13:01 CET will join at the end of the queue.

Visiting the website the day before sales start will not guarantee you get first place in the queue.
You are advised not to refresh the ticket page, or you will lose your position and be placed at the back of the queue.

When you get through the queue you will need to enter your access code to be able to book tickets. Please note: your code is unique and personal. If tickets are booked with a different email address to the one registered to that code, your tickets can be cancelled.

You need to personalise your tickets during the buying process. So please keep the names of anyone accompanying you ready if you buy more than one ticket. Re-personalisation opens in the coming months if you need to change the name on the ticket(s).

What is the maximum number of tickets you can buy for the Eurovision Song Contest?

A maximum of four tickets for all shows can be purchased per account. You are able to buy tickets for multiple shows, but at a maximum of four (4) tickets in total per order/code/email address/person.

For example, if you book two (2) tickets in one (1) order, your code will then become invalid, as the code is only valid for one order. You cannot purchase another two (2) tickets in a second order. If you would like to book seats for different shows as part of your four (4) tickets, you must do so in one order BEFORE making payment. Your code will become invalid once you make your payment.

Information on registration and how to get an access code can be found in these FAQs.

Please note that you can only register once for all ticket sales; there will be no new registration period for new sales that happen after the first sale on 13 January.

Please note: the access code doesn’t guarantee you tickets!

Can I transfer my access code to someone else?

No, codes are non-transferable and cannot be shared.

I did not receive an access code and sales link.

Please check the spam file in your email account and in case there is no email, please write to eurofan@eurovision.com.

Can I enter multiple codes?

No. Only one (1) code can be processed during each order.

An order is defined as any booking (1-4 tickets) that has been completed with payment. It is important to note that only one order is possible per code. If you would like to book seats for different shows within your four (4) tickets, you must do so in one order BEFORE making payment. Your code will expire once payment has been made.

For example, if you book two (2) tickets in one (1) order, your code will lose its validity because you already booked two (2) tickets and the code is only valid for one (1) order; you cannot book four (4) tickets in two (2) separate orders. If you want to have tickets for different shows, you need to book these in one (1) order with a maximum of four (4) tickets in total.

I accidentally deleted the email with the access code.

Please check the deleted email folder to see if you can restore it. If this does not work, please contact the customer service department via eurofan@eurovision.com.

How much time do I have to finalise my order?

As you enter the booking page and tickets are in your online basket, you will have 15 minutes to finalise your order. Please keep your payment details ready.
