"From Vienna this year, expect glitter, key changes, baffling staging decisions and at least one entry that makes you wonder if you have accidentally ingested hallucinogens. Somewhere in among it all, a winner will emerge. But there are no winners in this quiz, beyond the smug satisfaction of being crowned a Eurovision king, queen or non-binary monarch in your own living room. But beware: too many wrong moves and you may find yourself languishing with the dreaded nul points, forever damned by the imaginary jury in your head."
"It's that time of year again, when most of mainland Europe plus a few other countries gather to decide which three-minute pop spectacle will lodge itself in your brain for at least the next 10 years. Sharpen your pencils, warm up your voting fingers and let the quizvision song contest begin. The 2026 Guardian Eurovision quiz"
"If you think there has been an error in a question or answer, and you are 100% sure you are not fact-checking a joke, you can email the quiz setter martin.belam@theguardian.com. But instead of that, why not watch one of the greatest Eurovision performances of all time ? Get those skirts at the ready! Bucks Fizz - Making Your Mind Up"
Most of mainland Europe and some other countries gather to choose a three-minute pop spectacle that will stay in people’s minds for years. The event from Vienna is expected to feature glitter, key changes, baffling staging decisions, and at least one performance that feels surreal. A winner may emerge, but the only real winners are those who feel smug after being crowned in their own living room. Wrong moves can lead to nul points and lasting embarrassment from an imaginary jury. Viewers are encouraged to prepare to vote and participate in a quiz experience, with an option to report errors by email and a suggestion to watch a classic Eurovision performance.
