Denmark

Reiley has another outfit than he had last Tuesday. In stead of beige and white he was wearing pink today. The rotating house serves as a useful navigational aid for Reiley, preventing him from becoming disoriented on the expansive stage. Currently Denmark has the 30th place at the bookies, but in the 2nd semifinal ranking Reiley is 10th. There is hope for Denmark.

Armenia

No changes seem to have appeared in the Armenian performance. So we still have Brunette sitting on the sloped structure, singing from it and later leaving it. Currently Brunette has a 12th place at the bookmakers. But remember Rosa Linn last year. She was 20th but had a worldwide hit.

Romania

A major change for Romania: where he had a yellow suit on Tuesday, it is pink today. Again he is wearing shorts, also his socks and boots are in pink. The Pikachu socks have changed for SpongeBob. The song is still not liked very much. We haven’t heard him singing yet, but with a 37th and last place in the betting odds the final seems very far away for Romania

Estonia

Estonia didn’t have much changes in comparision to the previous presentation. Wouter Hardy, who previously wrote “Arcade” for Duncan Laurence and “Tout l’univers” for Gjon’s Tears, is also responsible for this song. But it doesn’t seem to gonna be thát successful: 24th at the betting odds, but in the semifinal ranking Estonia has a 12th place. 

Belgium

It seems the Belgian act also remains the same. The stairs play a main role in the act, but the dancer, PussCee West has a remarkable role as well. The odds give Belgium a 29th place, but if we look at the specific semifinal ranking, it is an 8th place. Can we safely say Belgium will make it to the final?

🇨🇿 Artists: Daniel Zizka represents Czechia

📷 EBU Daniel Zizka will represent Czechia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2026. This gives the country a young artist with a calm stage presence and a clear artistic identity. Czech broadcaster ČT unveiled the 23-year-old singer on 8 March, confirming that he will perform CROSSROADS in Vienna. He will carry the Czech flag at the 70th Eurovision Song Contest. The song itself will be released on 11 March. That day, the official music video premieres on the Eurovision Song Contest YouTube channel. For Czechia, Daniel Zizka arrives as one of the more intriguing names of the 2026 season. Eurovision’s official announcement describes him as one of the most compelling voices of a new generation in Czech music. That reputation has also been strengthened by Headliner magazine, which included him in its list of future talents on the Czech music scene. What stands out most about Daniel Zizka is the contrast in his artistry. According to the Czech delegation, he combines technical control with calmness, precision and emotion. Kryštof Šámal, Head of Delegation for Czechia, said the room fell silent when Zizka first performed the song in the studio, calling the performance focused, confident and emotionally strong. Daniel Zizka himself appears determined to keep the focus on authenticity rather than spectacle. In the official reveal, he said he wants to bring music and emotion to Eurovision and stand firmly behind who he is as an artist.
