London Eurovision Festival 2026 brings Eurovision 2026 stars, past legends and local finalists to the UK capital for two nights of live shows, red carpets and fan experiences.
On April 17th and 18th, 2026, two huge Eurovision nights will take place at the British capital and raise the pulse of fans from across Europe and beyond. This is the London Eurovision Festival (LEF), a non-profit festival celebrating 70 years of Eurovision in two electrifying days of music, live performances, and unforgettable European style, with many Eurovision 2026 participants. The festival combines top-level entertainment with a meaningful social impact, creating a space where everyone is invited to celebrate together.
The EuroMix team will be there to cover the event and interview the contestants!
The festival, built on the huge success of the 2024 and 2025 editions, is described by fans and artists as “a glitter-filled family gathering.” Beyond the performances, the festival stands out for two red-carpet events that will allow close, live interaction between artists and fans. The double celebration will unfold across two of the city’s hottest venues: on Friday, April 17th, the festival will take place at the iconic Scala Club in King’s Cross, and on Saturday, April 18th, the excitement will continue at Colours Hoxton in trendy Shoreditch. The festival will feature live performances by Eurovision artists, top DJs, spectacular drag shows, and unique fan experiences.

EuroMix behind the scenes
The EuroMix team is set to operate next week from the heart of the action in London, after being officially invited to take part in the festival events. As part of that access, the team will receive unique backstage entry, where they will meet face to face with the standout stars of the 2026 contest.
During the coverage, interviews with the contestants are planned, with the aim of giving readers an authentic picture of the emotions and pressure the artists face as they prepare for the next stage of the contest — the next stop on the road to Vienna.
At the same time, EuroMix invites readers to follow the activity on our Instagram page, where live updates, exclusive footage, and real-time behind-the-scenes content will be published — click here!
The festival management told EuroMix that the event will take place under a safe-space and inclusive policy for all attendees.
