BNT, the Bulgarian national broadcaster and the EBU (European Broadcasting Union) announced the name of the 2027 Eurovision host city and venue after a nail biting and thrilling selection. We will be flying to the Black Sea coastal city of Burgas, famous for its iconic beaches, restaurants and resorts! Eurovision fans can now plan their trips to Bulgaria and book their flights and accomodation.
Burgas will have the grand honour of hosting the Eurovision Song Contest for the very first time in the history of the Eurovision Song Contest thanks to DARA’s magnificent victory at the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest last May in Vienna. The Arena Burgas in Burgas will welcome Europe, Canada and Australia at the forthcoming Eurovision edition on 11,13 and 15 May.
The Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2027 will be held on Saturday 15th May.
Martin Green CBE (Eurovision Song Contest Director) says:
We are delighted that Burgas will be the Host City for the Eurovision Song Contest 2027.
Burgas brings something really special to the Eurovision Song Contest. It is a vibrant, welcoming city on the Black Sea with a strong musical and cultural identity, and it has the ambition, infrastructure and passion needed to welcome the Eurovision family.
For the first Eurovision Song Contest ever to be held in Bulgaria, we want to create something that feels truly Bulgarian while also being unmistakably Eurovision – a celebration that brings people together through music.
We thank all of the cities which showed such enthusiasm in their bids to host Bulgaria’s first ever Eurovision Song Contest.
Together with BNT, the City of Burgas and our partners across Bulgaria, we are looking forward to creating an unforgettable Eurovision week in May and welcoming the world to Burgas.
Milena Milotinova (BNT General Director) says:
It was an intense and highly competitive process, so congratulations to Burgas! With this victory comes great responsibility, and I hope the ultimate winners will be the many international visitors who come to experience Burgas.
The selection of the Host City marks the beginning of the next key stage in Bulgaria’s preparations for the Eurovision Song Contest 2027. BNT, the EBU and Burgas now have an intensive period of collaboration ahead of us as we work together to deliver a Contest that meets the high expectations of millions of viewers around the world.
I am confident that Bulgaria will be a worthy host of Europe’s biggest live music television event and will showcase the very best of our culture, hospitality and professionalism.
