This year's event is being held in Lisbon after Portugal won last year's show.The final itself starts on Sunday, May 12 at 8pm BST (3pm ET,
12pm PT, 5am Monday morning AEST) and will be aired live.The Grand Final sees 25 European countries (oh, and Australia of course) singing
their hearts out for the pride of place as this year's winner
While that's not a victory for money, the winner can often end up launching a career off the back of their glory – just look at Abba who
won in 1974 and kept topping the charts until 1982

by Portugese actresses Filomena Cautela, Silvia Alberto, Daniela Ruah and Catarina Furtado
Voting is determined by small and demographically balanced juries and televoting
