Ten countries made it to the Grand Final of Eurovision 2024 Tuesday, advancing from the first semifinal of the European singing competition.
The first semifinal notably saw the long-absent Luxembourg, which last made the contest in 1993 where it finished last, make it to the Grand Final on Saturday.
Favorites Croatia and Ukraine also made it through to Saturday's show.
The finalists were chosen by a fan vote from the countries participating in the semifinal and in countries not in the contest.
Germany, Sweden, the United Kingdom, France, Italy and Spain each have automatic bids in the Grand Final.
