It’s the moment Eurovision fans have been clamouring for for weeks, and tonight the moment has finally arrived. The definitive Super Saturday of 2017 is upon us, and amongst tonight’s star-studded line-up, three countries will make their final decision on who goes forward to Kiev in May.
Malta’s MESC, Hungary’s A Dal and Poland’s Koncertu Krajowe Eliminacje will all take place tonight, with the winners in these countries snatching the golden ticket on that plane to Ukraine in a few months time. Hungary’s show follows a lengthy build-up of elimination shows, whereas Malta and Poland have opted for one do-or-die national final in 2017.
But who decides when? Let us walk you through tonight’s finals…
