This morning at 10:00 AM CET, the first round of ticket sales for the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 will commence. This round marks the initial sale of tickets. Unlike previous years, purchasing tickets this year required prior registration on the TicketCorner mailing list to prevent ticket resale, a phenomenon that has made it difficult for many fans to acquire tickets for live performances. The early registration closed on January 11, 2025, at 00:59 CET, and tickets cannot be purchased without prior registration.

Key Events of Eurovision:
The Eurovision Song Contest is divided into three main events each year: the first semi-final, the second semi-final, and the grand final. The first semi-final will be held on May 13, the second semi-final on May 15, and the grand final on May 17.
Each of these events will feature the main show broadcast live (Live TV Show) at 22:00 at night (Israel time). Additional tickets will also be sold for the “Family Show” held on the same day in the afternoon and another rehearsal called the “Jury Show” that will take place the night before at 22:00. All rehearsals will include all competing songs, hosting, and interval acts but will, of course, not include the final results and may have technical issues that could affect the viewer experience.
In previous years, ticket sales for rehearsals and live shows of Eurovision opened much later: Eurovision 2019 – First round of tickets sold on February 28, 2019 – Delay due to technical issues with stadium seating, making it impossible to determine the number of available seats Eurovision 2020 – First round of tickets sold on December 12, 2019 Eurovision 2021 – First round of tickets sold on May 8, 2021 – Preference was given to ticket buyers for Eurovision 2020 Eurovision 2022 – First round of tickets sold on April 7, 2022 – Likely delayed due to the impact of the COVID-19 virus Eurovision 2023 – First round of tickets sold on March 7, 2023 Eurovision 2024 – First round of tickets sold on November 28, 2023 What if you missed the first sales round? Similar to previous years, this year there will be more than one round of ticket sales. For organizers, this allows for staggered sales and less pressure on a single sale date, and for potential audiences, more opportunities to purchase tickets.

Eurovision 2025: This will be Switzerland’s 65th participation in the Eurovision Song Contest. Switzerland joined the competition in 1956, being one of the seven founding countries, and has won three times over the years. Its most recent victory was at the last Eurovision in 2025, with Nemo’s song “The Code.” This win follows Switzerland’s previous victory in 1988 with the song “Ne partez pas sans moi,” performed by international singer Céline Dion.
