It took place for the first time in Portugal following the country 's first victory at the 2017 contest in Kiev, Ukraine with the song `` Amar pelos dois '', performed by Salvador Sobral. The contest was held at the Altice Arena in Lisbon, and consisted of two semi-finals on 8 and 10 May, and the final on 12 May 2018. The three live shows were hosted by Filomena Cautela, Sílvia Alberto, Daniela Ruah and Catarina Furtado. Forty - three countries participated in the contest, equalling the record of the 2008 and 2011 editions. Russia returned after their absence from the previous edition, and for the first time since 2011, no country withdrew from the contest. The winner was Israel with the song `` Toy '', performed by Netta. This was Israel 's fourth victory in the contest, following their wins in 1978, 1979, and 1998, and their first top five placing in more than a decade. This edition also saw Cyprus and the Czech Republic achieve the best placing in their Eurovision history, coming in second and sixth place, respectively. Portugal finished in the last place, making this the third time that the host country ranked in the bottom five since 2015. For the first time since the introduction of the semi-finals in 2004, Azerbaijan, Romania, and Russia failed to qualify for the final. Also, no Caucasus countries participated in the final for the first time since 2005. The EBU reported that the contest had a worldwide audience of around 186 million viewers, surpassing the 2017 edition by over 4 million.

Venue The venue of the contest, Altice Arena in Lisbon, Portugal The Altice Arena in Lisbon is a multi-purpose indoor arena built for the Expo ' 98 and has a capacity of 20,000 attendees, making it the largest indoor venue in Portugal and among the largest in Europe. It is located in the Parque das Nações ( Park of Nations ) riverside district in the northeast of Lisbon, which was completely renovated to host the 1998 world 's fair. It is connected by metro to the nearby international airport and by train ( Oriente Station ) to the rest of the country and Europe. Bidding phase and host city selection Lisbon Guimarães Gondomar Santa Maria da Feira Braga Location of the host city ( blue ) and other candidate cities ( red ) On the day of the Eurovision Song Contest 2017 final, it was reported that Portuguese broadcaster Rádio e Televisão de Portugal ( RTP ) would accept the challenge of organising the 2018 contest in case of a victory. Following Sobral 's triumph, the European Broadcasting Union ( EBU ) 's Executive Supervisor for the Eurovision Song Contest, Jon Ola Sand, issued the hosting invitation to RTP during the winner 's press conference. The following day, the director - general of RTP, Nuno Artur Silva, confirmed that the broadcaster would organise the contest in 2018 and mentioned MEO Arena ( later renamed Altice Arena ) in Lisbon as a likely venue to host the contest. On 15 May 2017, RTP appeared to have confirmed Lisbon as the host city, but clarified the following day that no final decision had been taken regarding both the host city and venue. The basic requirements to select a host city were set out in a document presented by the EBU to RTP following their win in Kiev : A suitable venue that can accommodate around 10,000 spectators. An international press centre for 1,500 journalists with adequate facilities for all the delegates. A good distribution of hotel rooms, at different price categories, able to accommodate at least 2,000 delegates, accredited journalists and spectators. An efficient transport infrastructure, including a nearby international airport with readily available connections with the city, venue, and hotels. Besides Lisbon, other cities signalled their interest in bidding to host the 2018 contest : Braga, Espinho, Faro, Gondomar, Guimarães, and Santa Maria da Feira. The mayor of Porto, Rui Moreira, declared he would not be interested in `` spending millions of euros '' to host the contest, but he would support a bid from the Metropolitan Area of Porto ( Espinho, Gondomar, and Santa Maria da Feira ). On 13 June 2017, RTP representatives met with the Eurovision Song Contest Reference Group at the EBU headquarters in Geneva. During the meeting, RTP officials attended a workshop covering several topics related with hosting the Eurovision Song Contest and learned from the experience of the Ukrainian broadcaster UA : PBC. They also had the opportunity to present their first plans for the 2018 contest, including multiple proposals for the host city and venue. On 25 July 2017, the EBU and RTP announced that Lisbon had been selected as the host city, overcoming confirmed bids from Braga, Gondomar, Guimarães, and Santa Maria da Feira. In addition, RTP indicated the Parque das Nações, where Altice Arena is located, as the site for the shows.

Other sites Altice Arena Eurovision Village and EuroClub Airport Opening Ceremony Location of host venue ( red ) and other contest - related sites and events ( blue ) The Eurovision Village was the official Eurovision Song Contest fan and sponsors area during the event weeks, where it was possible to watch performances by contest participants and local artists, as well as the live shows broadcast from the main venue. It was located in Lisbon 's downtown Praça do Comércio ( also called Terreiro do Paço ), a large central square open to the Tagus river. The EuroClub was the venue for the official after - parties and private performances by contest participants. Unlike the Eurovision Village, access to the EuroClub was restricted to accredited fans, delegations, and press. It was located at the `` Ministerium '' club, next to the Eurovision Village. The `` Blue Carpet '' event, where all the contestants and their delegations are presented before the accredited press and fans, took place on 6 May 2018 at the Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology ( MAAT ) in Lisbon 's Belém district. This preceded the official Opening Ceremony of the 2018 contest, which took place at the nearby Electricity Museum. Format Visual design The twelve supplemental emblems for the 2018 Eurovision Song Contest. The theme for the contest, All Aboard !, was unveiled on 7 November 2017 in a press conference held at the Lisbon Oceanarium. Its visual design features oceanic motifs that allude to Lisbon and Portugal 's location on the Atlantic coast and to the country 's seafaring history. Alongside the main emblem, which depicts a stylised seashell, twelve supplemental emblems were designed to symbolise different aspects of a marine ecosystem. The contest 's Executive Supervisor Jon Ola Sand remarked that the theme and logos `` resonate with Lisbon 's history and underscore Eurovision 's core values, including diversity, very well. The Ocean connects all of us and its variety can provide good inspiration for each of the participating broadcasters that we look forward to seeing in Lisbon next May. '' Presenters Presenters Daniela Ruah, Sílvia Alberto, Catarina Furtado, and Filomena Cautela On 8 January 2018, RTP and EBU announced that the contest would be hosted for the first time by four female presenters, consisting of RTP hosts Sílvia Alberto, Filomena Cautela, and Catarina Furtado, together with actress Daniela Ruah. It will be the first time since 2015 that the contest does not feature a male presenter, and the second consecutive year that the presenters are all the same gender. It was confirmed on 4 May 2018 that Cautela would host the green room. The Blue Carpet opening ceremony was hosted by actress Cláudia Semedo, radio host Inês Lopes Gonçalves, actor / TV host Pedro Granger, and actor / director Pedro Penim. Granger and Penim moderated the press conferences, as well. Semi-final allocation draw The draw to determine the allocation of the participating countries into their respective semi-finals took place on 29 January 2018 at 13 : 00 CET, at Lisbon 's City Hall. The thirty - seven semi-finalists had been allocated into six pots, based on historical voting patterns as calculated by the contest 's official televoting partner Digame. Drawing from different pots helps to reduce the chance of so - called `` bloc voting '' and increase suspense in the semi-finals. The draw also determined which semi-final would be broadcast and voted by each of the six automatic finalist countries ( hosts Portugal and Big Five countries France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom ). The ceremony was hosted by contest presenters Sílvia Alberto and Filomena Cautela, and included the passing of a Eurovision insignia from Vitali Klitschko, the Mayor of Kiev ( host city of the previous contest ), to Fernando Medina, the Mayor of Lisbon.

Active EBU members Andorra -- The Director General of Ràdio i Televisió d'Andorra ( RTVA ) announced on 14 May 2017 that Andorra would not participate in the contest, due to financial difficulties and the restructuring of the company. Bosnia and Herzegovina -- On 18 September 2017, BHRT confirmed that Bosnia and Herzegovina would not return to the Eurovision Song Contest in 2018. Luxembourg -- Steve Schmit, the Director of Programming at the Luxembourgish broadcaster ( RTL ), explained last year the reasons against participating in the Eurovision Song Contest. He also underlined that Luxembourg 's chance for success in the contest is limited : `` I believe that ( with ) the enlargement of Eurovision, the days ( of victory ) are gone. With the new voting system, it is very unlikely that Luxembourg is successful. Small countries are somewhat more troubled now ''. Luxembourg last participated in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1993. Monaco -- On 31 August 2017, Monegasque broadcaster TMC confirmed that Monaco would not participate in the 2018 contest. Slovakia -- Eríka Rusnáková, press spokesperson of the Slovak broadcaster Radio and Television of Slovakia ( RTVS ), confirmed on 11 September 2017 to Czech Eurovision website Eurocontest.cz that the country would not participate in the 2018 contest. Turkey -- On 12 July 2017, Sertab Erener, who won for Turkey in 2003, announced on an Instagram live chat that Turkey would return and wished luck to the next representative. maNga, the 2010 Turkish representatives, and Hadise, the 2009 Turkish representative, also expressed their interests for Turkey returning to the contest. Despite these statements, on 7 August 2017, the Deputy Prime Minister of Turkey, Bekir Bozdağ, issued a statement saying that there were no plans for a return. The same day, TRT confirmed their non-participation in the 2018 contest. Associate EBU members Kazakhstan -- Khabar Agency became an associate member of the EBU on 1 January 2016, opening up the possibility of future participation. They broadcast all the shows in 2017. Furthermore, the winner of the Turkvision Song Contest 2014, Zhanar Dugalova, said she would be interested in representing Kazakhstan in the contest. However, on 25 September, Khabar Agency told Esctoday that : `` We have no information about Kazakshtan 's participation in Eurovison 2018 yet '', maintaining the possibility of the country being invited by the EBU, as it is entirely at the EBU 's discretion to extend an invitation like in the case of Australia. The EBU however, chose not to invite Kazakhstan, as seen in the list of participants. On 22 December 2017, it was claimed that Channel 31 had finalised negotiations with the EBU, allowing Kazakhstan to debut in 2019, however, on 23 December 2017, the EBU told Esctoday that : `` Channel 31 Kazakhstan has indeed expressed interest in becoming a Member of the EBU and hence participate in the Eurovision Song Contest. However, since Channel 31 is outside the European Broadcasting Area and is also not a member of the Council of Europe, it is not eligible to become an active Member of the EBU ''. Non-ebu members Kosovo -- Kosovar media reported that RTK was hopeful that they would debut in the 2018 Eurovision Song Contest in Portugal. In an article published by RTK the Director of Television at the Kosovar broadcaster stated that he had received the support of national broadcasters across the Balkans to participate in the competition. However, both Bosnia - Herzegovina and Serbia had opposed such participation. The EBU then sent a letter to RTK explaining that Kosovo can not participate in the ESC, because it is not a UN member and it is not a fully recognised state. Liechtenstein -- On 1 September 2017, 1 FL TV, the national broadcaster of the Principality of Liechtenstein confirmed that the country would not debut in 2018. However, on 4 November 2017, 1 FL TV announced that they are planning a debut in the Eurovision Song Contest in 2019.

Ewan Spence and Lisa - Jayne Lewis ( WJFD - FM radio, final ) ; Portuguese : Ana Filipa Rosa ( WJFD - FM radio, final ) Incidents Accusations of cultural appropriation Following the performance of Israel 's Netta Barzilai and her song `` Toy '', critics of the song accused Netta of culturally appropriating Japanese culture, with several users taking to social media such as Twitter to call the performance `` offensive ''. The accusations were made after she wore a kimono and buns, as well as Maneki - nekos being shown during the performance. The topic was debated on British morning show Good Morning Britain on 14 May 2018 in response, with television presenters Trisha Goddard and Piers Morgan defending Netta by stating that she was simply implementing elements of Japanese culture due to her own appreciation of it. English journalist Rebecca Reid disagreed, arguing `` It 's not a beautiful, loving representation of real Japanese culture. It 's a costume ''. Belarusian Song submission On 10 January 2018, it had emerged on Russian networking site VK that Ukrainian singer Alekseev had performed a Russian - language version of his EuroFest entry `` Forever '' ( as Navsegda ) in May 2017 in Stavropol -- before 1 September 2017, the submission deadline set by the EBU, potentially violating the rules of the contest. Six artists threatened to withdraw from the selection if it were allowed to compete, with Sofi Lapina actually doing so. Alekseev was ultimately allowed to compete by BTRC following a melodic revamp of the song, and went on to win the selection, thus representing Belarus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2018. However, on 23 February 2018, it was reported that the EBU had given Alekseev permission to perform his original English - language version of the song at the contest, and he would opt to sing that version of the song in May. A few weeks after that announcement, on 28 March 2018 Alekseev premiered a new official version of his Eurovision entry with a lighter intro and additional choir at the end of the track. He also confirmed that this version would be the one performed in Lisbon. Czech rehearsal injuries On 29 April 2018, during the first rehearsal of the Czech Republic 's performance, singer Mikolas Josef reportedly sustained injuries to his back while rehearsing and was subsequently rushed to hospital. The singer updated his fans on Instagram, stating `` I can confirm that I got injured during the rehearsal and the situation got worse after several hours. I ca n't even walk now. Got back from the first hospital and I am now heading to another one ''. He stated that he would, however, `` perform no matter what ''. Josef performed in the first semi-final on 8 May with a slightly altered performance, owing to his injuries, and ultimately finished 6th in the Grand Final on 12 May, achieving Czech Republic 's best result to date. He was also the second Czech contestant to qualify for the Grand Final, the other being Gabriela Gunčíková in 2016. Mango TV censorship During the Chinese broadcast of the first semi-final on Mango TV, both Albania and Ireland were edited out of the show, along with their snippets in the recap of all 19 entries. Albania was skipped due to a ban on television performers displaying tattoos that took effect in January 2018, while Ireland was censored due to its representation of a homosexual couple on - stage. In addition, the LGBT flag and tattoos on other performers were also blurred out from the broadcast. As a result, the EBU has terminated its partnership with Mango TV, citing that censorship `` is not in line with the EBU 's values of universality and inclusivity and its proud tradition of celebrating diversity through music, '' which led to a ban on televising the second semi-final and the grand final in the country. A spokesperson for the broadcaster 's parent company Hunan TV said they `` were n't aware '' of the edits made to the programme. Ireland 's representative, Ryan O'Shaughnessy told the BBC in an interview, `` they have n't taken this lightly and I think it 's a move in the right direction, so I 'm happy about it. '' United Kingdom stage invasion The performance of SuRie, representing the United Kingdom, in the final was disrupted by a man who rushed onto the stage and grabbed her microphone, reportedly shouting `` Modern Nazis of the UK media, we demand freedom ! War is not peace. '' The man, later identified as ' Dr ACactivism ', a political activist from London, climbed into a camera run to get access to the stage. SuRie was able to complete her performance, and after the song the broadcast cut to an unscheduled interview in the green room. The EBU offered SuRie and her team the opportunity to perform again, but she declined. SuRie later revealed that she had suffered several bruises on her right hand. For official release on YouTube, Eurovision edited out the interrupted performance and substituted SuRie 's Jury Night performance from the previous evening. The official video retains the unscheduled green room interview with the Ukrainian delegation that followed the stage invasion. Other Awards In addition to the main winner 's trophy, the Marcel Bezençon Awards and the Barbara Dex Award will be contested during the Eurovision Song Contest 2018. Additionally, the OGAE voting poll took place before the final. Marcel Bezençon Awards Further information : Marcel Bezençon Awards The Marcel Bezençon Awards were first handed out during the Eurovision Song Contest 2002 in Tallinn, Estonia, honouring the best competing songs in the final.
