Bulgaria will host the Eurovision Song Contest in May 2027 — a historic first for the country and an unforgettable celebration for music lovers from all over Europe.
In 2026, Bulgaria achieved its first-ever Eurovision victory in Vienna thanks to the incredible Dara and her uplifting, emotional song Bangaranga. Her spectacular performance captured the hearts of millions and secured a dream that Bulgarians had waited decades to experience.
The journey to victory was not easy. Shortly after being selected to represent Bulgaria, Dara faced strong criticism and even considered withdrawing from the competition. However, encouraged by the unwavering support of her family, friends, and fans, she decided to continue — a decision that ultimately led to one of the greatest moments in Bulgaria’s modern music history.
When Dara returned home to Sofia as Eurovision champion, thousands of fans gathered in the city centre to celebrate her success. The Bulgarian capital welcomed her with a festive concert, a red-carpet ceremony, music, lights, and an atmosphere filled with pride and emotion.
Now, the excitement continues as Sofia prepares to welcome Eurovision fans from across the globe in 2027. Visitors will have the chance to experience not only the magic of the contest, but also Bulgaria’s rich culture, vibrant nightlife, delicious cuisine, and warm hospitality.
Thank you, Dara, for the unforgettable emotions, for making history, and for bringing Eurovision home to Bulgaria. Eurovision 2027 in Sofia promises to be one of the most exciting editions of the contest yet.
