The allocation draw for ESC 2019
The allocation draw for ESC 2019
The allocation draw for the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest took place today at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art.
As in recent years, the countries had previously been divided into “pots” based on their voting history with the aim of ensuring a balanced spread across the two semi-finals. To allow the delegations to make their travel plans based on the preliminary rehearsal schedule, the participating countries were also assigned to either the first or second half of the respective show.
The draw was as follows:
| SEMI-FINAL 1 | SEMI-FINAL 2 | |
| First half | First half | |
| Belarus Cyprus Czech Republic Finland Hungary Montenegro Poland Serbia Slovenia |
Armenia Austria Denmark Ireland Latvia Moldova Romania Sweden Switzerland |
|
| Second half | Second half | |
| Australia Belgium Estonia Georgia Greece Iceland Portugal San Marino Ukraine |
Albania Azerbaijan Croatia Lithuania Macedonia Malta Netherlands Norway Russia |
The “big five” countries, who are already qualified for the grand final, and host nation Israel were also assigned to the semi-finals that they are required to broadcast and vote in:
France, Israel and Spain will vote in the first semi-final on Tuesday 14 May.
Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom will vote in the second semi-final on Thursday 16 May.
As has been the case since ESC 2013, the exact order of performance will be decided by the producers once all the entries have been chosen, the aim being to create a varied and interesting running order.
