The 2025 Eurovision Song Contest final will be broadcast live at 9 p.m. (3 p.m. E.S.T.) from the St. Jakobshalle arena in Basel, Switzerland. You can watch it from pretty much anywhere on a variety of platforms.
The contest is run by the European Broadcasting Union, an umbrella organization of public-service broadcasters around the world. If you’re in the United States, you can stream the contest on Peacock because it is owned by NBCUniversal, and NBC is an associate member of the union.
In Britain, you can watch on various BBC outlets (or listen to it on the radio). In Italy, tune in to RAI and in Spain, head to RTVE. The European Broadcasting Union’s members are mostly in Europe, but can also be found in such countries as Israel and Algeria.
Australia has been competing at Eurovision since 2015, and there you can watch on SBS. Many people do in that pop-mad country, despite the contest airing at 5 a.m. on the Australian East Coast. If no broadcaster in your country of residence holds the rights to show the contest, you can check out the livestream on the Eurovision Song Contest channel on YouTube.
Each broadcaster supplies its own commentary, and many of the pundits have followings of their own: Graham Norton’s fantastically funny play-by-play has led people in many countries to install a VPN so they can access the BBC coverage. And then there are nods to regional languages: SVT offers commentaries in Swedish and in two Sámi languages through a collaboration with the Finnish public broadcaster, Yleisradio.
In other words: Nowadays, watching Eurovision is easier than ever, no matter where you are.
