Eurovision 2024 Format & Fixtures

Before betting on the Eurovision Song Contest, you’ll want to know the contest format and the main fixtures of this year’s competition.

The Eurovision is an annual international songwriting competition organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). A total of 37 countries will participate in the 2024 edition of the Eurovision, consisting of three live shows, two semi-finals, and the Grand Final.

The schedule for the 2024 contest in MalmΓΆ Arena, Sweden, will be as follows:

🎀 EventπŸ“… Date⏳ Time
🎢 Semi-Final 17th May 202421:00 CEST
🎢 Semi-Final 29th May 202421:00 CEST
🎢 Grand Final11th May 202421:00 CEST

Traditionally, the Big 5 countries performed their songs during the Jury show in both semi-finals, but there have been some major changes this year. These countries will now perform during the semi-finals like the rest of the participating countries, and there have also been changes to how viewers can vote, which is important to be aware of if you want to bet on the competition.

In the upcoming Eurovision contest, viewers will be able to vote throughout the Grand Final live performance. This means they no longer have to wait for the final song to be performed when the hosts usually announce that voting time is open.

Eurovision Betting Odds 2024

With a solid understanding of the Eurovision format and schedule, the next step to bet on the event is understanding the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 betting odds and using them to decide which bets you want to place. The odds should also be used to calculate the payout you would get if your bet is successful, which is often another factor when punters decide which bets to place.

Eurovision Betting Markets

New customers may appreciate knowing, that for most punters and Eurovision fans, Eurovision betting means predicting the country to finish in first place in the 2024 contest. However, while the outright winner is the most common type of betting for the Eurovision Song Contest, there are other ways you can bet on the Eurovision.

Below, we’ve briefly explained the main betting Eurovision markets you can find at Betiton Ireland:

  • Outright Winner – Eurovision outright betting refers to betting on the winner of the Eurovision Song Contest. It’s the most straightforward way of betting on the Eurovision and the most common bet among punters. Although it’s a simple bet type, it’s definitely a tricky one to predict correctly. The odds are more favourable if you place your bets early on, but the odds can fluctuate drastically as the event approaches and begins. Based on the performance in the semi-finals, the countries in the top five can go down several places in the favourites list.
  • Semi-Final 1 – This market refers to betting on a country you think will make it to the first semi-final. You can choose multiple countries for this bet, depending on your predictions. Like the previous bet, the odds can change after the three live shows.
  • Semi-Final 2β€”This bet is similar to the previous one but involves betting on the countries that will advance to the second semi-final. The second semi-final is the last round before the Grand Final.
  • Winner of Semi-Final 2 – Betting on the country that will earn the highest number of points in the second semi-final. This means you’re betting on which country will win this round in the Eurovision.

Something you’ll want to remember about live Eurovision betting is that the odds change rapidly. You can place live bets until all the entries have performed their songs. Unlike live betting on sports, predicting the winner during the event is nearly as difficult as making predictions before the event.

Best Eurovision Betting Tips by Betiton Ireland

Like any form of sports betting, Ireland Eurovision betting is always risky because the competition is unpredictable. The Eurovision 2024 betting odds change regularly, and it’s not uncommon to see a country go from being the favourite to win to the bottom of the top 10 list within a few weeks.

Having said that, it’s important to remember the risk of Eurovision 2024 betting and use the following tips to ensure the best odds:

  • Do basic research on Eurovision rather than relying solely on Eurovision betting odds.  Look up past winners and countries which placed second and third in previous editions.
  • Follow pre-contest events to gauge the popularity of competing artists and their songs. This means factors like social media engagement, YouTube views, and reviews of performances in pre-parties.
  • Compare odds from different bookmakers and base your predictions on the most recent Eurovision Song Contest betting odds.
  • Consider the language factor. Based on every performance in Eurovision history, English is the most successful language of choice for a Eurovision song.
  • Consider the political climate in Eurovision voting. Many nations are known to vote for neighbouring countries.
  • Remember to set a budget for Eurovision betting and avoid betting outside your means. Always stick to your budget and never chase your losses.
