Bulgaria was crowned Eurovision 2026 winner in Vienna after a tense public-vote finish, with Israel taking second place and Romania third.
516 points secured Bulgaria's first-ever Eurovision title for Dara's "Bangaranga," after the song topped both jury and public voting.
0 public points left the UK last, with "Look Mum No Computer" ending on a single jury point and marking Britain's third last-place finish since 2020.
