Today around 13:00 CET, the draw for the running order of the qualifier round and the final of the Eurovision Song Contest takes place in Istanbul, under supervision of the EBU and al delegation leaders of the participating countries.

The hosts of the upcoming contest, Meltem Cumbul and Korhan Abay, will execute the draw, which will be broadcasted over the Eurovision network. Although all member broadcasters have the chance to broadcast the small programme, experience learned us that very few do so. TRT will not broadcast it live according to the latest information that we received.

Because esctoday.com wants to bring you the excitement of the draw and immediately as it takes place, we'll try to establish a phone connection with the studio in Istanbul so we can show you the results of the draw live. No guarantuee, but well do everything we can! Stay tuned around 13:00 CET at esctoday.com!
