ESC 2019 | Semi Final allocation pots revealed


Today, the EBU have revealed the allocation draw pots for the Eurovision 2019 semi finals. Each of the 36 countries taking part in the semi finals have been put into one of six different pots. The pots are based on each country's voting history in Eurovision.

  • Albania

  • Croatia

  • Montenegro

  • North Macedonia

  • Serbia

  • Slovenia

Pot 2:

  • Denmark

  • Norway

  • Sweden

  • Switzerland

Pot 6:
