Bulgaria's coastal city Burgas will host Eurovision 2027

The Bulgarian National Television (BNT) and the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) have revealed that Burgas will be hosting the 71st Eurovision Song Contest, which will take place in May 2027.

BNT will organize the next edition of the contest following Bulgaria’s victory with DARA’s song “Bangaranga” at Eurovision 2026. The win gives Bulgaria the right to host the next edition of the world’s largest televised music event.

The Grand Final of the 71st Eurovision Song Contest will take place on Saturday, May 15, 2027, at Arena Burgas, in one of Bulgaria’s most popular Black Sea cities. The semi-finals are scheduled for Tuesday (May 11) and Thursday (May 13).
