FAQ

  • The Eurovision Song Contest (ESC) will take place in Basel from 10 to 17 May 2025. Basel, a Swiss city, is located in the border triangle, close to Germany and France. 

  • When tickets went on sale at the end of January, all 42,000 available tickets for the ESC 2025 live shows in Switzerland sold out within minutes. Now there is a new chance: the second round of sales starts on 27th of March at 12:00 o'clock.

    Important note: Anyone wishing to buy tickets must have registered online by 10th of January. Without this registration, tickets cannot be purchased this time either. All registered fans who have so far missed out will receive an access code for the official ticket platform ticketcorner.ch by e-mail.

    Ticket prices vary between 40 and 350 Swiss francs depending on the show and category.

  • The siblings ‘Abor & Tynna’ will perform the song ‘Baller’ for Germany at the ESC 2025 in Basel. The duo, originally from Vienna, won 34.9 per cent of the vote during the live TV show ‘Chefsache ESC 2025 - Wer singt für Deutschland?’. 

  • You can either book accommodation directly in Basel. However, most hotels and holiday flats are already fully booked during the ESC. You can find other accommodation in the area surrounding Basel, for example in the Black Forest Highlands, in Lörrach or in Mulhouse (France). Cheaper prices than in Switzerland and the great nature of the Black Forest are certainly a big advantage. Find your accomodation in the Black Forest here.
