Ahead of the Thai capital, Bangkok, hosting the Eurovision Song Contest Asia 2026 on Saturday 14 November, one of the key moments in the build-up has arrived. The organisers have revealed the running order for the 11 countries taking part in the first edition of the contest. Cindy Bishop and Woody Milintachinda will host the inaugural Eurovision Asia 2026 at the One Bangkok Forum.
The order has been set on artistic and television grounds, with the aim of building a dynamic show that keeps viewers watching. The organisers have also taken into account the technical complexity of each performance, to make stage changes easier and keep the live show moving.

Anyone hoping to experience the show live in Bangkok can still buy some of the remaining tickets, although availability is limited. The organisers will also stage a show on Friday 13 November, the eve of the grand final: the jury show, the dress rehearsal on which the national juries cast their votes, which account for 50% of the final result.
With 11 countries on stage and a show designed to connect with an international audience, Eurovision Asia is ready to open a new chapter in the history of the Eurovision brand. The 14 November final marks the start of a musical adventure bringing together artists from across Asia in one competition.
