How to get Eurovision 2023 tickets: Prices and updates as tickets go on sale

Eurovision is heading to Liverpool after last year’s winners, Ukraine, were deemed unable to host the contest in the midst of their ongoing conflict with Russia.

There will be nine live shows held in the city that lucky fans will be able to get tickets for – and enthusiasts hoping to try their luck will need to be ready today if they want to secure their spot in the audience.

The tickets will go on sale at 12pm on Ticketmaster’s website exclusively and prices are expected to range from £30 to £290 for the semi-finals and £80 to £380 for the grand final.

Fans will need a Ticketmaster account to secure the tickets and are only able to buy tickets for one of the shows at a time, so they'll need to make sure they know which show they want to attend the most.

In order to make sure that everyone gets a fair shot, fans of the song contest will also only be able to buy up to four tickets in a single order for the finals and six for the previews.

The nine shows, six of which are previews and three of which are semi-finals and finals, will be held at Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena which is close to the banks of the River Mersey.

Liverpool will also hold a two week cultural festival when Eurovision arrives, which they’re calling EuroFest.

The festival will feature a series of free events and concerts with a dual focus on British and Ukrainian artists and musicians, while the song contest itself will be hosted by Ukrainian singer Julia Sanina.

Ukraine won last year’s song contest, which was held in Turin, Italy, with song Stefania by band Kalush Orchestra.

The UK finished second with Sam Ryder’s hit song Space Man, which was so well-recieved it shot straight to number one in the UK charts after his performance.

As well as the inclusion of Ukrainian acts, the event will also pay tribute to last year’s winners by reserving thousands of tickets for displaced Ukrainians now staying in the UK after being forced to flee their country.

More than 80,000 refugees have arrived in the UK from Ukraine since Russia invaded on 24 February 2021 as thousands of British families offered their homes as temporary accommodation through the Government backed Homes for Ukraine scheme.
