Trader sentiment for Eurovision 2026's First Semi-Final on May 12 in Vienna hinges on Finland's "Liekinheitin" by Linda Lampenius and Pete Parkkonen emerging as the frontrunner after standout national final performances and early streaming traction, bolstered by Sweden's Felicia ("My System") and Greece's Akylas ("Ferto") riding strong fan buzz from recent previews. The 15 entrants—spanning Croatia, Georgia, Moldova, Portugal, Belgium, Estonia, Israel, Lithuania, Montenegro, Poland, San Marino, and Serbia—compete for 10 Grand Final spots, with Germany and Italy voting but pre-qualified. Recent catalysts include Georgia's "On Replay" release mid-March sparking diaspora hype, amid Israel's "Michelle" drawing boycott scrutiny from absent nations like the Netherlands. Watch April 2 running order reveal and imminent first rehearsals for staging shifts that could upend jury and televote dynamics.
