Not everyone has the time and date of Eurovision burned into their memory, so just to make sure you don’t miss one of the world’s favourite TV shows, here are all the times for the semi-finals and grand final of the 2012 Contest.
For the TV broadcasts, check your local listings to confirm which station this year’s Eurovision Song Contest will be broadcast on. Australian fans should note the delayed broadcast times on SBS mean you’ll need to go into internet lockdown to avoid the results, or watch the free live stream from Eurovision.tv along with everyone else who’s in a country without a national broadcaster
