Fans can purchase tickets for a total of nine shows at the 2023 Eurovision Song Contest, from Monday, May 8 until the televised Grand Final on Saturday, May 13. The shows available to attend include three evening preview shows, three-afternoon preview shows, and three live final broadcasts.

But when are the tickets being released, how much are they and where can you buy them? Here's everything you need to know.

When do Eurovision 2023 tickets go on sale?

The tickets will go on sale at midday on Tuesday, March 7 and will be available to purchase on Ticketmaster. You must have a Ticketmaster UK account to make a purchase and fans are encouraged to make their accounts before next week.

A statement on the Eurovision website reads: "Tickets will only be available to purchase at www.ticketmaster.co.uk regardless of the country you are booking from, and you can only purchase tickets for one show at a time. You must have a Ticketmaster UK account to purchase tickets, and fans are encouraged to create their account in advance of Tuesday 7 March."

What tickets are available?

The Evening Preview Show (referred to as the Jury Show) is a full run through of the show that takes place the night before the televised version. Audiences can stay for a randomised version of the qualifier/points reveals, as the presenters practise for different scenarios.

The Afternoon Preview Show (known as the Family Show) is a full run through of the show that takes place earlier in the day of the Live TV Show. According to the Eurovision website it "serves as one final rehearsal for the artists and crew, and as the name suggests, it's much more convenient for those who wish to bring younger Eurovision fans."

Or fans can get tickets to the Live TV Show for both the semi-finals and the final.

How much are Eurovision tickets?

Eurovision ticket prices range from £30 to £290 for the Semi-Final shows and from £80 to £380 for the Grand Final shows.

Tickets available will include standing (on the arena floor), seated, accessible seats and hospitality packages. While customers will only be able to buy tickets for one show at a time, customers can purchase a maximum of 4 tickets in one order for the live shows and and six Preview shows.
