Spain acts in eighth position, but how is the order decided?

First, by drawing lots it is decided if each country will perform in the first or second half of the night. With that decided, the organization distributes the performances according to television criteria. That is to say, it is seen that there are not several ballads or slow songs in a row that can cause a drop in audiences or, in general, they avoid putting several of similar styles in a row. There is an idea that it is better to act in the second half so that the performance is fresher in the memory when it comes to voting, but the data shows that the situation is not so decisive when it comes to winning.

Spain will participate in eighth position,the same as ABBA when he won with Waterloo in 1974. Last year, Chanel performed in 10th position and did not do badly. It is estimated that Blanca Paloma will be on stage at around 9:45 p.m.. Right after will come Sweden, the favorites to win, and in 13th place, Finland. It will be a first half where they concentrate well apart from the favorites of the night.
