Interest in the roughly 100,000 tickets for the Eurovision Song Contest shows at the Wiener Stadthalle is enormous. As part of the multi-stage ticketing system, the available tickets sold out quickly, apart from a few remaining tickets.

Are there still tickets available?

Anyone still hoping to get tickets for the Eurovision Song Contest can do so via the official resale platform fanSALE from ticket provider Oeticket. This is the only place where tickets can be resold legally and at the original price. fanSALE is open until five hours before the shows begin.

Important: the only way to ensure you purchase a valid ticket for the events is through the official ticket sales channel. Do not use any other sales channels under any circumstances.
