Eurovision 2023 semi-final 1 results: Who is through to the grand final?

The first 10 countries through to the Eurovision Song Contest grand final on Saturday, May 13 have been confirmed. It comes after the first semi-final took place on Tuesday, May 9.

A further 10 will be confirmed on Thursday, May 9 when the second semi-final takes place. The 20 countries going through will be joined by the UK, Italy, France, Spain and Germany, otherwise known as the 'Big Five,' as well as last year's winners Ukraine.

In a change of rules this year, scores at the semi-finals rest entirely with the public, with votes from the national juries only coming into play during the grand final. Viewers in the UK were not able to vote in Tuesday's semi-final. They will have to wait until the second semi-final on Thursday to have their say. You can read more about how it works here.
