The Eurovision Song Contest has unveiled its Australian jury, less than one month out from the international event.

Amanda Pelman, best known for signing a young Kylie Minogue, will chair the panel. She will be joined by well known entertainer Richard Wilkins, Bluejuice frontman Jake Stone, artist Danielle Spencer and tv presenter Ash London.

Their votes for each performance at the Eurovision Song Contest will count for 50 per cent of the total score.

The remaining half will come from viewers in countries of participating broadcasters - including Australia - who can vote for their favourite songs in the Eurovision Semi-finals and Grand Final.

Jury members and public voters can’t vote for their own countries, meaning Australians cannot vote for Guy Sebastian.

Both semi-finals will be shown in full on SBS ONE on Friday May 22 and Saturday May 23 from 7:30pm, as well as the Grand Final on Sunday May 24 from 7:30pm.

SBS will also broadcast both semi-finals and the Grand Final live on Wednesday May 20, Friday May 22 and Sunday morning May 24 from 5am.
