The Grand Finalists have completed the draw which determines which half of the running order they'll be performing in during the Grand Final of the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest.
On Saturday 6 May, Germany, France, Italy and Spain found out which half of the Grand Final they'll be performing in on Saturday 13 May.
Back in March , at the Head of Delegations meeting in Liverpool, host country the United Kingdom and reigning Contest champs Ukraine randomly drew their positions in the Grand Final - with the United Kingdom's Mae Muller drawing 26th and Ukraine's TVORCHI drawing 19th.
On the afternoon of Saturday 6 May, after our performers from Germany, France, Italy and Spain rehearsed at Liverpool Arena for the second time, they each had a sit-down chat with Ukrainian broadcaster Timur Miroshnychenko. During the TikTok live broadcasts, Tea with Timur, the four remaining Grand Finalists randomly drew either a First Half or Second Half place in the running order.
The results of the draw:
🇩🇪 Germany – Second Half
🇫🇷 France – First Half
🇮🇹 Italy – First Half
🇪🇸 Spain – First Half
