Europe, get ready! The Eurovision Song Contest 2025 is heading back to its birthplace, Switzerland, as Basel has been officially announced as the host city for the 69th edition of the world’s biggest music event.
Mark your calendars—Eurovision 2025 will take place on:
📅 May 13 – First Semi-Final
📅 May 15 – Second Semi-Final
📅 May 17 – Grand Final
Switzerland, the country that won the very first Eurovision in 1956, will welcome the contest back for the first time since 1989, following Nemo’s historic victory with “The Code.”
Basel, known for its rich culture, stunning architecture, and vibrant arts scene, will take center stage as it hosts artists and fans from across the continent for a spectacular celebration of music and unity.
Why Basel?
As one of Switzerland’s most dynamic cities, Basel offers a perfect blend of modern infrastructure and historic charm. With its excellent transport connections, large event venues, and a deep-rooted love for the arts, it’s an ideal choice to host Eurovision.
The contest will likely be held at St. Jakobshalle, one of the country’s largest indoor arenas, though official venue details are yet to be confirmed.
Who Will Take the Crown?
With Nemo’s groundbreaking victory in Malmö 2024, all eyes are now on who will step up to claim the Eurovision 2025 trophy. As national selections begin later this year, the journey to Basel 2025 is officially underway!
