Switzerland’s Nemo wins Eurovision 2024. After months of excitement – and some last-minute drama – the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 is over and the winner’s crown this year was handed to Switzerland’s Nemo. It was a spectacular night in Sweden as the massive event was held at the Malmo Arena, a year after the UK was chosen to host on behalf of Ukraine in Liverpool.
Following Loreen’s victory in Liverpool in 2023 with the song Tattoo, the 68th edition of the Contest took place in Sweden. It is the seventh time Sweden has hosted the world’s biggest music event and this year it was hosted by a Hollywood star and an iconic Eurovision veteran; Malin Åkerman and Petra Mede.

And it was smooth sailing for Olly during the Eurovision Song Contest final after the singer spoke of having a wardrobe malfunction at the first semi-final on Tuesday. The Years and Years star, 33, was number 13 in Saturday night’s running order, performing 12th at the Malmo Arena with the song Dizzy, following the Netherlands’ withdrawal.
His performance, which featured upside-down dressing room staging and cameras rotating to give a spinning feel to Alexander and the dancers, went smoothly after his mic pack fell off earlier in the week.
Meanwhile, actress Dame Joanna Lumley gripped a glass of champagne while announcing the jury votes for the UK at the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest. Dame Joanna presented the country’s 12 points to Portugal with a backdrop of the Tower of London and made reference to last year’s Eurovision in Liverpool before describing Sweden’s hosting of this year’s event as “fabulous”.
