With Eurovision in Liverpool edging ever closer, the running orders for the contest’s semi-finals taking place on May 9 and May 11 are set to be announced this week.

France, Germany, Spain, Italy and host country the UK - also known as the “Big Five” - will not perform in either of the semi-finals, although their domestic audiences will get to vote in one.
The running order of the Grand Final, which will take place at Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena on May 13, is usually determined by producers just after the second semi-final. Here’s everything you need to know about the semi-finals running order announcement.
