For 70 years, the Eurovision Song Contest has showcased the bold, bizarre, bedazzled and beautiful — and this year will be no exception.
Thirty-five countries will battle across one week for the title, performing at Wiener Stadthalle in Vienna, Austria.
Representing Australia is Sydney-born singer-songwriter Delta Goodrem, performing her song, Eclipse.
Eurovision has launched the careers of many iconic performers, including ABBA, who won while representing Sweden in 1974, and Canadian singer Celine Dion, who won while representing Switzerland in 1988.
