The 2025 Eurovision semifinal allocation draw is complete, and now we know, roughly, when the various acts will perform in May.
As of 28 January, the only issue is that we know very few of the songs, so there is nothing yet to visualize. You may use your imaginations. In the meantime, you can visit our 2025 entry tracker here.
The sad news to come from this is that Moldova’s withdrawal is official, and they will not be able to reconsider, since they were not part of the semifinal draw. They screwed up big-time this year, but we can save that particular content for another article.
See where each country landed in the drawing, and if you’re in a big-six country this year, where you will be voting.

If we knew more about the participating songs, we might have a better idea of how these semifinals will be stacked. We will have to wait until March to get some more clarity on that point. It is not atypical for the semifinal draw to occur this early – last year, it was on 30 January.
