With this title, Sweden equaled Ireland’s record for victories in the competition and its seven successes. The result came late in the evening, after endless suspense, by combining the points awarded by the jury and the audience’s points. After the artists’ brilliant performances, the audience voted to decide which country would win the Eurovision Song Contest, which the UK is hosting in Liverpool on behalf of defending champion Ukraine.

So Sweden won the competition, followed closely by Finland, then Israel, Italy and Norway. Ukraine, the winner of the 2022 edition, finished sixth.

The twenty-six performers threw all their forces into the fray, from Italian Marco Mengoni, wearing a gleaming tank top, ending his show, microphone trembling with emotion, to La Zara, Quebec representing France, perched on a pole several meters above the ground. A show that was not enough to impress viewers and professionals. France has not won since 1977 with Marie Myriam.
