Eurovision is just around the corner.

Ireland just confirmed that Wild Youth would be representing the country in the upcoming competition.

Preparations are underway in the UK for the live shows, which will air in May.

Liverpool was chosen as the host city after Ukraine won the song competition in 2022. However, due to the war currently happening in the country, it was decided runner-up the UK would host in their stead.

Now it has been revealed who will be presenting the shows.

And we couldn’t be more delighted to share that proud Cork man Graham Norton will be on stage to entertain us on the night.

Graham, of course, is the BBC commentator, so he’s well-versed in the way of the iconic song contest.

He will be joined by Ted Lasso star Hannah Waddingham, singer Alesha Dixon and Ukrainian singer Julia Sanina.

Hannah will front the two semi-finals on 9th and 11th May with Alesha and Julia, with Graham joining them for the grand final on Saturday, 13th May.

Broadcaster Zoe Ball, announced the news on her BBC Radio 2 breakfast show, saying: “On the TV hosting the Eurovision Song Contest final in Liverpool will be Alesha Dixon, the Ukrainian singer Julia Sanina, award-winning actress from Ted Lasso and Games Of Thrones Hannah Waddingham and someone you may well know, Mr Graham Norton.”

We can’t wait to tune in.
