Yolanda will represent Portugal in the final of the 68th Eurovision Song Contest, which will be held on Saturday in Malm.Hey, In Sweden. The theme “Grito” will compete in the final with songs from 25 countries.
In the semi-finals, 36 countries participated and 20 finalists were selected. In addition to the selected countries, there are the “Big Five” – the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain and Italy – which have the right of direct passage to the final due to the financial contribution they make to organizing the event. The host nation, Sweden, also has a direct entry into the grand final as it was the winner of the last edition of the event.
The order of performances is already known and Portugal, on course for its second win, will be the 18th country to take to the stage. The festival begins with a show from Sweden, and Austria closes out the big night.
